Comúnmente olvidado
- The §196.081 total exemption is the big one for 100% permanent & total vets. The $5,000 §196.24 exemption is separate and much smaller.
- The age-65+ combat-related discount (§196.082) is a percentage discount, not a full exemption, and is one of the most under-claimed Florida benefits — and it carries to the surviving spouse.
