If a Notification of Change in Assessment is issued, how many days do taxpayers have to file an appeal?

When a Notification of Change in Assessment is issued, taxpayers have a specific timeframe in which they can file an appeal. In New Jersey, this period is set at 45 days from the date the notice is sent. This timeframe is crucial because it provides taxpayers with an opportunity to contest their property assessments if they believe there has been an error or if they have new information that could impact their assessment. Knowing this period is essential for taxpayers and for assessors to ensure that appeals are handled in a timely and efficient manner. The 45-day window emphasizes the importance of prompt communication and action regarding property assessments, as missing this deadline could result in losing the right to appeal the assessment for that tax year.
