Owner-occupier claims and property identifiers
Individual residential owners may apply for or withdraw owner-occupier rates. The concession applies to only one property where the person owns and lives in multiple homes, and does not apply to corporate owners. If the owner will not occupy the property, the concession should be withdrawn. Land-remission applications are available to invited eligible owners rebuilding or constructing a residence. Prepare the property address or property tax reference, occupancy period and relevant identity details.
Payments, objections and account records
The directory includes GIRO, tax-balance checks, notices, myTax Mail and payment. Annual Value objections require reasons and supporting evidence; they should not be used as a substitute for an owner-occupier application. The property calculator estimates tax using Annual Value, property type and occupancy status, while the actual assessment remains in the account. Different services have different processing estimates: most Annual Value objections may take up to six months. Keep acknowledgement records and review the subsequent notice.
