ASSESSING DATABASE INFORMATION

   VETERAN CREDIT & ELDERLY EXEMPTION APPLICATION DEADLINE

      New veteran credit or elderly exemption applications are due in the Selectmen’s Office NO LATER than April 15 annually.  

If you have already been approved for a credit or exemption,
you do not need to reapply. 


    
The law does require that we verify information every five years to comply with the NH certification process.  The veteran credit verification was done in 2004, and the elderly exemption verification process was done in 2005.    Please call the Selectmen’s Office at 895-2226 x 11 if you have any questions.


ELDERLY EXEMPTION APPLICATION

There are two forms needed to complete an application for an Elderly Tax Exemption.  Print out each of the forms below and complete them.

Town Elderly Exemption Application Information Form

State PA-29 Form

If your property is in a trust, you also must complete the PA-33 form and submit it with your application.

State PA-33 Form

Bring completed sets of forms and other documentation to the Selectmen's Office prior to April 15th.

There are additional directions with both forms.

Please call our office at 895 2226 if you have any questions or need further assistance.

You can also pick up hard copies of the forms at the Selectmen's Office.


LOW AND MODERATE INCOME PROPERTY TAX RELIEF

Click on the following link to get to the NH DRA website with information and filing forms for this relief:
http://www.nh.gov/revenue/forms/low_mod_program.htm

As of May 1, these forms are now available.  Be sure you file by June 30, 2008 for the 2007 tax year.  

 Property Taxes and Assessing Information:

2007 Tax Rate $21.23
2007 Equalization Ratio 96.8%

If you are buying a specific property, find out what the actual taxes are for a full year and ask questions about the assessment.  Every state assesses differently and this may avoid surprises after you move in.  The tax year in the State of NH runs from April 1 to March 31.  Fremont bills only once per year, with taxes due annually on December 1.

For any questions on how your tax assessment was derived or copies of your tax card, call the Selectmen's Office at 603 895 2226 x 11 or send an email to:  FremontTownHall@comcast.net

For any questions on tax payments or interest calculations, contact the Tax Collector at 603 895 3200 x 14 or send an email to: 
FremontTax@comcast.net
