Connecticut benefits at your rating
Connecticut gives veterans with a total and permanent service-connected disability a complete property tax exemption — no home? Then a complete exemption on one motor vehicle instead. Federally taxed military retired pay is not taxed by Connecticut. Veterans with 90+ days of wartime service get free tuition at public colleges; Gold Star dependents of post-9/11/2001 killed or MIA/POW service members too. State hiring preference is 5 or 10 points, and veteran-owned micro businesses get a 15% state contract price break. Disabled veterans get free fishing/small-game hunting licenses and a free lifetime state park pass. Rocky Hill hosts a veterans healthcare center and residential facility, and Middletown has the state veterans cemetery.
