Leitrim Councillor Predicts Minimal Changes in Local Property Tax Rates
A Leitrim Councillor has expressed the belief that changes to Local Property Tax rates will have minimal impact on residents in the North West region. Many homeowners are approaching the deadline to file their property tax returns.
Local Property Tax Returns Deadline
Homeowners have until the end of the day to complete their Local Property Tax submissions. A significant number of residents have yet to update their property valuations with Revenue.
Current Situation
- Over one million homeowners have not submitted updated valuations.
- These valuations will determine local property tax amounts from 2026 to 2030.
Valuation Process
Cllr Padraig Fallon commented on the situation during an interview with Ocean FM. He noted that if property owners do not provide new valuations, Revenue is expected to create its own assessments.
This process aims to ensure that all properties are evaluated fairly, even if owners miss the deadline.
Conclusion
As the deadline approaches, it is crucial for residents to be aware of their obligations regarding Local Property Tax. Homeowners should ensure they submit their valuations to avoid complications in the future.
