Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

90-day property tax penalty and interest relief

For 90 days starting on the law’s enactment date, the Lieutenant Governor waives penalties and interest on overdue real property taxes. You must pay the taxes within that 90-day window to get the waiver. The waiver does not cancel the base tax you owe.

90-day amnesty for back income and gross receipts taxes

The Bureau of Internal Revenue sets a one-time 90-day amnesty within 10 days after this law takes effect. It applies to tax years before 2024. If you owe back income tax, penalties are waived when you file all missing returns and pay the full tax within the 90 days. If your business owes gross receipts tax, both penalties and interest are waived when you pay in full within the 90 days. The Bureau posts notices on its website, on social media, and in a territory newspaper. This amnesty does not erase the tax you owe.
