Non-filed or late-filed forms

If you do not file by Monday, June 12, 2017, the following may occur:

  1. MAR – municipality receives a reduced levy limit due to the lack of new construction information
  2. TAR– prior year's non-manufacturing full value is certified for the current year. This may result in less tax increment dollars available to the municipality.
  3. ECR – municipality will not receive an exempt computer aid payment
    Note:  If you do not file a MAR or TAR by June 12, 2017, DOR's Equalization Bureau will file a formal complaint against your certification with the Office of Technology & Assessment Services, requesting a review and possible revocation of your assessor certification under state law (sec. 73.09(7), Wis. Stats.)

If you have questions, contact the Equalization Bureau District Office in your area.
