Final Reminder: 4/30/21-COVID - 19 Commercial property tax relief applications due to (Prop 8 filing)
County of San Diego, California sent this bulletin at 04/27/2021 04:46 PM PDT
Dear San Diego County Business Owner,
Your San Diego County Assessor’s office is working proactively to provide qualified property owners, possessory interest leaseholders and many of our small business owners that pay Business Personal Property Tax (571-L) tax relief due to COVID-19. Under State law, Proposition 8 allows for tax relief if the current market value of your property as of January 1, 2021 is lower than the assessed or taxable value as shown on your 2020 tax bill. With your Prop 8 application for property tax relief and necessary information our team can work to qualify your property for tax relief. The good news for those paying the business personal property tax is we will be automatically applying tax relief to those bills. Watch the video below to hear about the tax relief.
To assist you in the Prop 8 tax relief application we are providing you a video recording from Commercial Property Tax Relief Workshop hosted by the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce featuring property tax relief experts from the San Diego County Assessor’s office.
