Arkansas

Lead generation for financial advisors in Arkansas.

Arkansas has 562,842 residents aged 65 and over, 18.2% of the state and 27th of 50 states by share. The state leaves Social Security alone but taxes most pension and IRA income above a modest exemption. That makes withdrawal planning a real conversation, not a formality.

Arkansas exempts only the first $6,000 per person of employer pension and traditional IRA income combined, so the size, timing and ownership of withdrawals shape the state bill, and the homestead assessment freeze begins at 65.

Market knowledge

What Arkansas pre-retirees are actually asking about

The questions here are about which retirement income is taxed and what happens to property tax at 65. Verified against the Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration and the Arkansas Legislature on 2026-09-24.

Social Security is exempt from Arkansas tax

Social Security benefits, VA benefits and Railroad Retirement benefits are exempt from Arkansas income tax. Private pensions paid by railroad companies do not count as exempt Railroad Retirement benefits. For most clients, Social Security sits outside the state calculation entirely.

One $6,000 exemption per person for pensions and IRAs

Arkansas exempts the first $6,000 of taxable income from employer sponsored retirement plans and traditional IRA distributions taken after age 59 1/2, reported together on one line. A spouse with their own qualifying retirement income gets a separate $6,000. The balance is taxable, which puts the order of withdrawals in play.

Assessed value freeze at 65, and a $600 credit

Once a homeowner turns 65 or becomes disabled, the taxable assessed value of their homestead can be frozen at the next assessment date, on application to the county assessor. Separately, Act 330 of 2025 raised the homestead property tax credit from up to $500 to up to $600 a year, starting with the 2026 tax bills.

Taxpayers 65 or over who do not claim a retirement income exemption can instead take an additional $29 tax credit each, the "65 Special". The two cannot be combined, so a client with little pension or IRA income should compare them.
