County offices
Office contact details for Muskogee County are being verified.
Rather than publish an officeholder or phone number we have not reconfirmed, this section stays empty until each entry is checked against an official county or Oklahoma Tax Commission source. County assessors change, and a wrong name or number sends someone to the wrong place.
In the meantime, the Oklahoma Tax Commission maintains a current directory of county assessors: OTC Ad Valorem resources.
Homestead exemption in Muskogee County
The standard Oklahoma homestead exemption removes $1,000 of assessed valuation, not $1,000 from your tax bill. What you actually save depends on the millage rate where you live. File OTC Form 921 with the Muskogee County Assessor.
Apply by March 15, or within 30 days after you receive a notice of valuation increase, whichever is later. File after that and the exemption starts the following tax year.
Households with gross income of $30,000 or less may qualify for an additional $1,000 exemption on Form 994. Veterans’ disability compensation does not count toward that income figure.
