Until December 1, you must transfer the tax on property that was owned in 2016. If you do not receive a notification by mail about the amount to be transferred to the budget, but you have an apartment, summer house, car or land plot, you will have to figure out the situation yourself.

Recall that in most regions, real estate tax is now tied not to the inventory value of real estate, but to the cadastral value. Therefore, the amounts in bills have grown significantly. However, a deduction is also provided. What it is? These are square meters that are not taxed. If you own a room, then 10 sq. m will not be taken into account. The area of the apartment when calculating is reduced by 20 sq. m, and houses or cottages – by 50 sq. m. The number of owners does not matter. If there are two apartments, the deduction applies to both. Real estate tax is now charged not only on a house and an apartment, but also on a parking space, a summer residence, all buildings, including unfinished ones, that are on the site. The law provides for benefits. A complete list of categories of citizens who can count on them is on the website www.nalog.ru. But it is worth noting that only one property is exempt from tax. Let’s say a pensioner has two apartments. You will have to pay to the budget only for one.
Changes in tax legislation come into force this year. When selling real estate that has been owned for less than five years, you must transfer 13% of the transaction amount to the state (applies to square meters purchased after January 1, 2016). Previously, only those who sold houses and apartments had to fork out, the tenure of which was less than three years. Those who inherited real estate, became the owner after privatization, or received square meters under a contract of life support are exempted from the tax. In this case, the period during which the seller owned the property does not matter.
In addition to real estate tax, there are also land and transport taxes. Information about them is included in the receipt that comes to the owner. After receiving the notification, check if all the property has been taken into account. If, for example, they forgot about the car, then you need to report the shortage to the tax office. If the information is not provided, a fine of 20% of the amount that had to be paid will be imposed. And it happens that the tax is charged on a long-sold apartment or car. In this case, you need to write an application to the tax office. Consider the notification. Its second part is an application form. It contains the number of the document sent to you, the address of the inspection. The completed application can be sent by mail. It must be accompanied by copies of documents confirming your words, for example, a sales contract. You can personally visit the tax office.
The easiest way to track your debt is through the personal account of the tax office. To open it, you will have to visit the district office once, they will give you an access password and login. You must take your passport and TIN with you. In your personal account, you can not only find out about debts, but also pay them with a card. Don’t trust this method of transferring money? Print the receipt and pay at the bank. In your personal account, you can make an application for an incorrectly assessed tax or for a forgotten car.
By the way, knowing the TIN, it is easy to find out if there are arrears in payments to the budget in the Yandex. Money”. Is part of the property registered in the name of a minor? This means that he was assigned a TIN. But the number cannot be recognized through electronic systems. To do this, you still have to go to the district inspection.
According to statistics, 4,1% of owners do not pay taxes at all, 70,9% are not aware of what has changed in the legislation for owners of apartments, summer cottages and cars
