Determining proper value for included property is essential before
filing the Connecticut homestead exemption form. Also, this form
will effect the permissible value for protected homes in Chapter 7
bankruptcy when claiming Connecticut homestead exemption law. In Chapter
7 cases, the bankruptcy exemption claim form H must indicate property by
a legally sufficient designation, and further, must identify the Connecticut Homestead Exemption Act
section which authorizes the claim. The specific act section must be
specified, and the form filed for record with the clerk.
The amount of the exemption is reviewed periodically by the state
legislature. During the political process, legislators periodically
reach a compromise adjustment. Currently, the amount of the exemption is
pegged at $75,000.
