North Carolina benefits at your rating
North Carolina's standout benefit is the disabled veteran property tax exclusion: veterans with a 100% permanent and total (P&T) service-connected (SC) disability pay no tax on the first $45,000 of their home's value. Surviving spouses of qualifying veterans can keep that exclusion. Veterans with a disability get a free lifetime hunting and fishing license at 50% SC or higher, a free state parks annual pass with any VA (Department of Veterans Affairs)-certified SC disability, and ten bonus points on state job exams. Five state veterans homes, four state veterans cemeteries, and a children's scholarship round out the package.
All 10 categories are listed for 0% combined, rating status Unselected. A program that needs a higher rating stays in its category. Study-list confidence marker: High.
