(Washington, DC) The Office of Tax and Revenue (OTR) is reminding property owners who believe that their proposed 2008 assessment does not reflect the market value of their property to file an appeal on or before the April 2 deadline. The April 1 statutory deadline for filing an appeal is a Sunday this year; therefore, the deadline has been extended to Monday, April 2.
The appeal process allows property owners to dispute the real property assessment determined by OTR's Real Property Assessment Administration. Each property owner must start at the first level of appeal before going to the next level.
For additional assistance taxpayers are invited to call (202) 727-4TAX (4829) or visit OTR’s Customer Service Walk-in Center, located on the 1st floor of 941 North Capitol Street, NE, between the hours of 8:15 am and 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday.
