[SC] [SC] What do I need to qualify for the 4% legal residence property tax rate?

I live in SC and have contemplated separating for many years. My spouse has a problem with habitual drunkenness, anger management issues, and he has been emotionally abusive for many years. I still live at home with him—in a home he purchased in his name, co-signed by his now-deceased father. I’ve recently been able to purchase a home in my name only, closer to my job in the next city over, so I’d have somewhere to go when I separate. A non-profit told me I could update my driver’s license to show my new address and qualify for the 4% primary residence property tax rate. But when I tried to apply for legal residency on the Lexington County website, I found out it’s not that simple. They won’t accept a notarized separation agreement (which he hasn’t signed yet). They require a filed Order of Separate Maintenance and Support with a docket number to prove I reside separately before granting the 4% rate—regardless of whether it’s my actual primary residence. This doesn’t seem fair because it brings the courts into a private matter and adds fees, when marriages should be allowed to resolve their differences without court involvement.
