PROPERTY
TAX RELIEF FOR MILITARY PERSONNEL
All
active duty military personnel, including activated reservists, are
eligible for property tax deferral pursuant to the Soldiers and Sailors
Relief Act. The Soldiers and
Sailors Relief Act applies to all military personnel regardless of
duration of military service, financial status or where they are
stationed. Qualifying
individuals may elect to defer the payment of their property taxes while
called to service to defend the needs of our nation.
Military
personnel, their spouse or any person authorized to act on the service
person’s behalf are urged to call on the Tax Collector’s office at
(209) 468-2133 with any questions or to obtain an application to apply for
the deferment of their property taxes.
Once the military actions are concluded or the service person is no
longer on active military status, the deferred amount will need to be
paid. At such time, our office
will provide an installment payment plan as needed.
