Recently in the progressive City of Muntinlupa, the City Government announced that real property tax amnesty is being offered and the public is encouraged to avail of it, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news article of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…
The Muntinlupa City government encouraged the public to avail of the real property tax amnesty being offered under Republic Act 12001.
The law, otherwise known as the Real Property Valuation and Assessment Reform Act, approved in June last year, stated that the amnesty will “cover penalties, surcharges, and interests from all unpaid real property taxes, including Special Education Fund, idle land tax, and other special levy taxes, prior to the effectivity of this Act.”
The real property tax amnesty can be availed of within two years after the effectivity of the law or until July 5 next year, the Muntinlupa City government said.
“This relief may be availed by a delinquent property owner with the option of one-time payment or installment payment of the delinquent real property taxes within two (2) years from the effectivity of this Act,” according to the law.
To avail of the amnesty in Muntinlupa, people need to go to the Muntinlupa City Treasurer’s Office to know if they are qualified.
They need to submit an application for amnesty to the Treasurer’s Office and keep one copy. They need to wait for the confirmation of their application. If approved, they will go to the Treasurer’s Office to pay.
Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? If you are a resident of Muntinlupa City, are there many property owners in your local community who have yet to know about the real property tax amnesty offered?
