in connection with the submission of a conveyance to determine whether the transfer is entitled to exemption. The auditor may

agreements, closing statements, court orders, resolutions from corporate boards of directors, articles of incorporation, Internal
Revenue Service exemption certi cates, or in any other form deemed necessary by the auditor that suf ciently substantiates the
claim for exemption.
Line 6 If the grantor has indicated that the property to be conveyed will receive the senior citizen, disabled person or surviving spouse
homestead exemption for the preceding or current tax year under R.C. section 323.152(A), grantor must complete DTE 101 or
submit a statement that complies with the provisions of R.C. section 319.202(A)(2), and the grantee must submit such form to
the county auditor along with this statement.
Line 7 If the grantor has indicated that the property to be conveyed was quali ed for current agricultural use valuation for the preceding
or current tax year under R.C. section 5713.30, the grantor must complete DTE 102 or a statement that complies with R.C. section
319.202(B)(2), and the grantee must submit such form to the county auditor along with this statement.

Ohio. Failure to complete this application prohibits the owner from receiving this reduction until another proper and timely ap-
plication is led.
