I am filing this petition after the petition deadline. I have attached a statement of the reasons I filed late and any documents that support my statement. |
I will not attend the hearing but would like my evidence considered. (In this instance only, you must submit duplicate copies of your evidence to the value adjustment board clerk. Florida law allows the property appraiser to cross examine or object to your evidence. The VAB or special magistrate ruling will occur under the same statutory guidelines as if you were present.) |
Property Type - Select one |

Reason for Petition - Select one (If more than one, file a separate petition) |

Check here if this is a joint petition. Attach a list of parcels or accounts with the property appraiser’s determination that they are substantially similar. (s. 194.011(3)(e), (f), and (g), F.S.)
Number of parcels in list: (In addition to the $15.00 filing fee, you will be charged $5.00 for each listed parcel)

Enter the time (in minutes) you think you need to present your case. Most hearings take 15 minutes. The VAB is not bound by the requested time. For single joint petitions for multiple parcels or accounts, provide the time needed for the entire group.

My witnesses or I will not be available to attend on specific dates. I have attached a list of dates.

You have the right to exchange evidence with the property appraiser. To initiate the exchange, you must submit your evidence directly to the property appraiser at least 15 days before the hearing and make a written request for the property appraiser's evidence. At the hearing, you have the right to have witnesses sworn. You have the right, regardless of whether you initiate the evidence exchange, to receive from the property appraiser a copy of your property record card containing information relevant to the computation of your current assessment, with confidential information redacted. When the property appraiser receives the petition, he or she will either send the property record card to you or notify you how to obtain it online. |
Your petition will not be complete until you pay the filing fee. When the VAB has reviewed and accepted it, they will assign a number, send you a confirmation, and give a copy to the property appraiser.
