Use this link for complete info on the "Homestead Rebate" on
the middle left of the page. Over to the left of that,
there are contact numbers. Mouse that link to find the best
way to make contact and how to resolve the problem. It
could be that there would be no difference in the refund
amount but that would depend on the incomes involved.
