Duval County Property Appraiser Jim Overton, CFA ATTENTION: HOMEBUYERS 2006 IAAO Public Information Award Winner
File for Homestead Exemption The Property Appraiser's Office is now accepting applications for the 2010 Tax Roll. If you purchased and moved into your home after January 1, 2009, you may now file for a 2010 exemption. If you established a new homestead and had a previous homestead in Florida, you may also 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). E-mail applications for 2010 are encouraged and available from the link at the top of this section. Attach the signed form with scans of all other required documentation to your e-mail and send to PACustServ@coj.net. You may also file in person in the Property Appraiser's Office, by fax at (904) 630-2525 or by mail. The deadline to file for exemptions and portability for the 2010 Tax Roll is March 1, 2010. If you have questions about portability, homestead or other exemptions, please contact (904) 630-2020.	TRIM Information On-Line Notices of Proposed Property Taxes, also called "Truth in Millage" (T.R.I.M.) Notices, were mailed August 17, 2009 to property owners. The Notice includes your property's market, assessed and taxable values as well as information on exemptions and public hearings held by the Taxing Authorities. The deadline to file a formal petition for a hearing with the Value Adjustment Board was September 11, 2009. To access your property's T.R.I.M. information for 2009, please use our Property Search or Tangible Search to retrieve information for your specific parcel; then scroll to the bottom of the page. Property Tax Reform Over the past two years, a number of laws have been passed by Florida residents and the Florida legislature relating to property taxes and the valuation of property. Amendment 1, passed in January 2008, includes a number of laws that may lower your property taxes. Find out more about Amendment 1 and other property tax reform laws passed in recent years.
