Fewer copies for homestead applicants

Starting July 1, 2026, Mississippi homestead applications use three copies instead of four. County clerks no longer send original applications to the Department of Revenue, and the Department no longer has to keep those applications. The Department still sets the form and keeps supplemental-roll copies for three years. Eligibility and exemption amounts do not change.
