A Glimpse into the New Property Tax Landscape 2018
HOUSTON, TEXAS - 02/16/2018 (PRESS RELEASE JET)
Just before the Christmas break in 2017, Congress passed the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act,” the act signed by President Donald Trump right before the Christmas Holidays, that brought many changes to the tax laws in the US including property tax laws.
The new Act has brought some changes to property tax laws for 2018 and impact filing and payment deadlines such as those that are used for filing tax payment notices of Protest and Personal Property Renditions.
The new deadlines must be paid before their due date. Some of the major changes are as follows:
- According to the new law, the deadline for filing a Notice of Protest is May 15, previously the deadline was due on May 31 for every year.
- If a Notice of Appraised Value is sent under the Code Section 25.19, the deadline could be extended to the 30th day after the notice is delivered.
- According to the new law, the new deadline for filing a personal property rendition is for “property located in an appraisal district in which one or more taxing units exempt property under Section 11.251 (Freeport Exemption)” is due on April 1. The previous deadline was around April 15.
- The new deadlines and tax filing laws are applicable for the interstate allocation for the moveable personal property. Personal property includes boats, vessels and commercial or business aircraft are March 31.
