2023 Agricultural Classification applications deadline to file was March 1, 2023. Properties currently receiving the Agricultural Classification benefit
will not have to file a new application; however, parcels not under the classification will be required to file an application with the Polk County Property
Appraiser office prior to the statutory date of March 1
Statute 193.461 (3) (a) unless ownership has changed.
If the application is submitted between March 2 and the VAB deadline, the application is considered a Late File Application.
Therefore, a Good Cause Statement must be submitted explaining the reason why the application is late.
FILE HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION AND OTHER PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTIONS FOR 2023
Marsha Faux, Polk County Property Appraiser, urges new homeowners to file for Homestead Exemption for the 2023 tax year on or before the deadline. The deadline to file is Wednesday, March 1
st, 2023. You must have purchased and moved into your home
on or before January 1, 2023.
If you had a previous homestead in Florida, you may be eligible for portability - the transfer of some or all of your old homestead's "Save Our Homes" benefit (the difference between your market and assessed values due to the annual cap on increases).
If you miss the March 1st 2023 deadline, you will have the opportunity to submit a late file application between March 2 and the VAB deadline.
Please note
a late file application will not receive a certified denial. Applicants that provide a valid email will receive a courtesy status change email once their application(s) are processed.
2024 PRE-FILE APPLICATIONS ARE FOR HOMES PURCHASED AFTER JANUARY 1ST 2023 AND THE DEADLINE IS MARCH 1ST 2024
Please take into consideration our offices are extremely busy with the approaching deadline of March 1st, 2023, and 2024 applicants may want to postpone applying in person until after March 1st, 2023. However, once our website reflects the ownership is in your name, you can apply anytime for Homestead, Portability, Senior (Age 65 and older), Widow/Widower, Disability, and Disabled Veteran Exemptions.
