What is the regular/general tax appeal deadline?

The regular tax appeal deadline for property tax assessments in New Jersey is April 1st. This date is crucial for property owners who wish to challenge the assessed value of their properties for the tax year. By adhering to this deadline, property owners retain their right to present their case to the county board of taxation. Failing to submit an appeal by this date often results in the loss of the opportunity to contest the assessment for that year, potentially leading to higher property tax obligations without any recourse. Therefore, understanding and respecting this date is essential for taxpayers looking to ensure that their property taxes are fair and based on accurate assessments.
