Request an application:
Phone: 208-236-7260
Office: 130 North 6th Avenue, Pocatello ID 83201
Do I need to apply again?
You only need to apply once. If approved, your exemption is good until any of the following happens:

• You no longer own the home
• The home’s ownership changes (e.g., you put the home in a trust; you start to share ownership with someone else)
How will I know I’ve been approved for an exemption?
When the application is approved, the exemption is permanent as long as one owns and occupies the property. If the property is sold, the new owner must file an application with the assessor’s office.
Notices of approval are not sent to homeowners; to verify that your exemption has been processed please review your annual assessment notice. If you believe there is an error pertaining to your exemption contact our office at (208) 236-7260.

If you qualify, the property taxes on your home and up to one acre of land may be reduced by as much as $1,500. The program doesn’t have an income limit.
Once granted, a surviving spouse can use this benefit, but it isn’t transferable to a new property after the death of the qualifying veteran.
Note: The benefits won’t reduce solid waste, irrigation, or other fees charged by government entities.
Who qualifies
You may qualify for Veterans Property Tax Reduction in 2023 if both of these apply:

- You owned and lived in a home in Idaho that was your primary residence before April 15, 2023.
- The property must have a current homeowner’s exemption.
- The home can be a mobile home.
Note: You could qualify if you lived in a care facility or nursing home. Contact your county assessor’s office for information.
How to apply
- Contact your county assessor for an application or download one here.
- Get a current letter from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs confirming your 100% service-connected disability rating or your 100% compensation due to individual unemployability as of January 1, 2023.
- Complete the application. The assessor’s office will help you. You must file the application with your assessor’s office between January 1 and April 18, 2023.
Note:
- This benefit isn’t automatically renewed. You must apply and qualify each year.
- If approved, your benefit will appear on your December 2023 property tax bill.

- You must meet certain conditions of the property tax reduction (PTR) program.
- For the 2023 program, your income for 2022 can’t be more than $53,638.

Property Tax Rolls
Occupancy Roll
Certain properties are added to the Bannock County Assessor’s occupancy tax roll, per Idaho Code 63-317.
Notices for the 2022 occupancy roll were mailed early November.
The occupancy tax roll consists of newly constructed residential, commercial, or industrial structures, including manufactured homes, that became occupied after January 1, 2022. Renovations and improvements to existing occupied structures are not included in the occupancy roll.
Structures added to the occupancy roll are prorated for tax purposes for the portion of the year for which the structure was occupied. The Bannock County Treasurer’s Office will mail an occupancy tax bill in January 2023, with the first half of the bill due in February 2023.
Example: A newly constructed home is built and becomes occupied July 1st. The home will go on the occupancy roll with the value being prorated from July 1-December 31.
You can call the Assessor’s Office at 208-236-7260 to speak to an appraiser concerning your value, or you can visit our office at 130 N 6th Avenue in Pocatello. The Assessor’s Office hours are from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
After speaking to an appraiser, if you would like to appeal this value, you may file an appeal with the Bannock County Board of Equalization on or before November 28, 2022. For more information about how to appeal, please visit bannockcounty.us/property-tax-hub or call the Commissioners’ Office at 208-236-7210.
Subsequent Roll
Certain properties are added to the Bannock County Assessor’s Subsequent Roll, or “Sub Roll.”
Notices for the 2022 subsequent roll were mailed early November.
The subsequent roll adds newly constructed structures (houses, outbuildings, etc.) that should have been on the Primary Roll for the entire year, but were not added in time for the Primary Roll assessment notices sent in June.
The subsequent roll also includes any parcels whose land value needs to be adjusted, typically due to purchasing land from a developer during the current tax year. In these cases, the developer qualified for a partial tax exemption during the initial development of the land. These partial tax exemptions typically expire upon the sale of the property.
The Bannock County Treasurer’s Office will mail a tax bill for properties on the subsequent roll in January 2023, with the first half due in February 2023.
You can call the Assessor’s Office at 208-236-7260 to speak to an appraiser concerning your value, or you can visit our office at 130 N 6th Avenue in Pocatello. The Assessor’s Office hours are from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
After speaking to an appraiser, if you would like to appeal this value, you may file an appeal with the Bannock County Board of Equalization on or before November 28, 2022. For more information about how to appeal, please visit bannockcounty.us/property-tax-hub or call the Commissioners’ Office at 208-236-7210.
Business Personal Property
All businesses in Idaho are subject to a Personal Property assessment and taxation on assets such as business furniture, equipment, fixtures, unlicensed vehicles, and/or recreational vehicles, among other items, if the total value is over $250,000.
The Assessor’s Office mails a Declaration to list all current personal property assets to all business owners owning assets with a value greater than $250,000 each year in early January.
The deadline to declare all assets to the Assessor is March 15th each year, under Idaho code 63-302.
The Bannock County Assessor’s Office typically mails a Declaration to businesses new to the area to say ‘welcome’ and ensure they know what to expect when filing their Business Personal Property.
The Bannock County Assessor’s Office also mails a Declaration to businesses with $175,000 or more in personal property to notify them they are approaching the $250,000 threshold. Businesses with assets less than $250,000 are not required to return the Declaration.
Personal Property assessment notices are mailed in June. Businesses can appeal the value of their assets if they disagree with the assessment to the Board of Equalization.
More information about Personal Property can be found in Idaho Code § 63-205,63-302-63-306, 63-311, 63-602KK, and 63-1401.
