If I have vacant parcels that are adjacent or contiguous to my homestead, may I claim the taxes on them?

Yes, unless the parcels are rented to someone else. If you are claiming multiple vacant parcels that are adjacent and contiguous, make sure to use the combined taxable value of all parcels for credit computation.
