PROPERTY TAX DEFERRAL DEADLINE IS APRIL 15

BOISE, IDAHO — March 21, 2008 — Homeowners who apply for property tax reduction have until April 15 to also apply for a property tax deferral under Idaho's Property Tax Deferral Program. The program offers individuals a way to defer the property taxes on their primary residence and up to one acre, which must be in Idaho.

Anyone who is granted property tax relief under the Property Tax Reduction (Circuit Breaker) Program can apply to defer their remaining taxes for the same year. The deferred taxes and interest must eventually be repaid to the state of Idaho.

Homeowners can get a property tax deferral application from their county assessor. They must file an application with their assessor by the April 15 deadline.

For more information about property tax deferral, call your county assessor's office or the Idaho State Tax Commission at 334-7736 in the Boise area or toll free at (800) 334-7756. You can also visit the Tax Commission Web site at tax.idaho.gov (click on "Property Tax," then "Property Tax Relief").
