Copies of the TC-40D Tax Exemption Form for a Dependent with a Disability can currently be found in two places on the Special Education website. Under the Staff Information tab, and then by clicking on Forms, it can be found under the heading "TAX Form". Additionally, parents can locate the form under the Parent Information tab and by scrolling to the bottom of the page. Parents of students with disabilities who wish to take advantage of this tax exemption will be required to obtain the signature of a school district representative who can certify that the dependent qualifies. The verification form should be signed by the school principal (LEA) or their designee.
The dependent must have a current IEP and must be eligible under one of the identified classifications or categories of disability (please see TC-40D Form for eligible disabilities). Please note that students with learning disabilities, emotional disturbances and communication speech language disorders only are NOT ELIGIBLE. Should a parent request that the school sign the TC-40D Tax Exemption Form, please check that the student is on a current IEP and verify that the student is being served under one of the eligible categories of disability.
Please contact your teacher specialist if you have any questions.
