By Vermont law, property owners whose homes meet the definition of a Vermont homestead must file a Homestead Declaration annually by the April filing deadline. If eligible, it is important that you file so that you are correctly assessed the homestead tax rate on your property. Here is the information you, as the property owner, need to know about the Vermont Homestead Declaration.

All property is considered nonhomestead, unless it is declared as a homestead. The education property tax rate levied on nonhomestead property differs from the rate levied on homestead property. It is your responsibility as the property owner to claim the property as a homestead if you meet, or expect to meet, the following requirements:

Many people file their Homestead Declarations at the same time they file their Vermont income tax returns. However, if you apply to extend the time to file your income tax return, the Homestead Declaration must still be filed by the April filing deadline. Even if a person is not required to file a Vermont Income Tax Return, the declaration must be filed by the deadline.

If you submit a Property Tax Credit Claim with your Homestead Declaration, you are allowed to amend or change household income only as reported on Schedule HI-144, Household Income, within three years of the April filing deadline. You may make the following amendments to Form HS-122, Homestead Declaration and Property Tax Credit Claim, within three years of the April filing deadline:

Use Schedule HI-144, Household Income, for the applicable year to amend household income. Enter the correct household income and mark AMENDED on the HI-144. Send the amended HI-144 separately from any other returns being filed with the Department.

If you fail to file your declaration by the October filing deadline, your property will be classified as nonhomestead. You then must pay the higher of the two rates, a penalty, and any additional property tax and interest due.

All owners of taxable personal property are to complete and file a personal property declaration schedule no later than April 15 each year as required by 39-5-108, C.R.S. The taxpayer must make a full and complete disclosure of all personal property owned by, under the control of, or in the possession of the taxpayer on the schedule, including any costs incurred for acquisition, sales/use tax, installation, and freight to the point of use of the personal property as required by 39-1-103(13)(b), C.R.S. The taxpayer must also submit any other information requested by the assessor so that the assessor may place a value on the property as required by 39-5-115(1), C.R.S. Declaration schedules have been developed by the Division of Property Taxation for use by the county assessors as required by 39-2-109(1)(d), C.R.S.

The primary form used by commercial business taxpayers is the Personal Property Declaration Schedule - DS 056. Other forms have been developed for residential rental taxpayers, lessors of personal property, renewable energy, and natural resource operations.

Mobile machinery and self-propelled construction equipment is designated as Class F personal property and is commonly referred to as Special Mobile Machinery (SMM). SMM is subject to registration and annual specific ownership taxation in lieu of ad valorem taxation as provided in 42-3-103(1) and 106(1), C.R.S.

The assessor should list this SMM for ad valorem tax valuation in cases where taxable SMMs are exempt from the requirement to pay specific ownership tax as required by 42-3-104(3), C.R.S., or for oil and gas drilling rigs as required by 39-5-113.3, C.R.S.

A problem develops when mobile equipment that has already been accounted for by the assessor is transported over the highways to a repair facility or to its new owner. This equipment could operate exclusively on property owned or leased by the equipment owner, it may be a piece of equipment that belongs to a skid-mounted drilling rig, or it may otherwise already be accounted for by the local county assessor. If such equipment passes through a port of entry station or a portable weight check station, it may be detained since it does not display an SMM plate or decal and there is no proof that it has already been accounted for by a Colorado county assessor.

To solve this problem, the Division of Property Taxation and Ports of Entry Division agreed to allow movable equipment to pass through check stations if an appropriate form showing proof of current year property tax assessment accompanies the mobile equipment. Form 301 has been approved by both Divisions for this purpose. Form 301 must be completed in its entirety. There should be no spaces left blank. Movable equipment must be adequately described by year, make, model, common name or description (such as pressure booster pump), serial or identification number (very important), date of purchase, and purchase price.

The certification of assessment must be completed and signed by either the assessor or chief deputy. The document also must be embossed with the county seal. Copies or facsimiles of Form 301 may not be accepted by the Ports of Entry agents. Upon stopping at a port of entry, the owner, agent, or driver should present the form for clearance and point out which of the SMMs listed are being transported at the time. The form will be returned to the driver.

The personal property appraisal record is a one-year value calculation worksheet for developing cost approach estimates for all machinery, equipment, and furnishings. The appraisal record provides for the determination of current replacement or reproduction cost new less depreciation (RCNLD) and for adjusting the current value to the correct level of value. Computerized output documents may be used in lieu of the following manual form.

Use Form 8938 to report your specified foreign financial assets if the total value of all the specified foreign financial assets in which you have an interest is more than the appropriate reporting threshold.

Use this packet ONLY if you are sure that your income and assets cannot be garnished. Use this packet with the Answer a Lawsuit for Debt Collection - Self-Help Forms or How to answer a lawsuit for debt collection. #0206EN

Yes, if you want to fight (to defend) the lawsuit/complaint. If you do not file a formal written response - called an Answer - to the lawsuit, the judge will enter a Default Judgment against you. This means the judge will rule in favor of the person who is suing you (called the Plaintiff).

By law, creditors cannot garnish or take certain types of income or money from you to pay off a debt. The most common types of income exempt from garnishment are (see a full list on the declaration form):

Consumer debt. This means debts from credit cards, doctor and hospital bills, utility and phone bills, personal loans from a bank or credit union, debts owed to a landlord or former landlord, or any other debt for personal, family, or household purposes.

If you are sued on a consumer debt, creditors cannot take any of your wages if you earn less than $569.80 weekly (35x the state minimum hourly wage). If you earn more than this amount, you may still keep 35x the state minimum hourly wage or 80% of your net pay, whichever is more.

Your home, where the equity value is the greater of $125,000 or the county median sale price of a single-family home in the previous calendar year. Equity is the amount of money you would keep after you sold your home and paid off the mortgage and other liens. You can find the median sale price of homes in your county at wcrer.be.uw.edu/archived-reports.

In the case of married persons or registered domestic partners, each spouse/partner is entitled to the exemptions of personal property, which may be combined with the other spouse's exemption in the same property.

Many countries around the world have introduced systems of asset declarations for public officials in order to prevent corruption. These systems vary greatly from country to country. The impact of such systems on the actual level of corruption is not well known.

This study provides a systematic analysis of the existing practice in the area of asset declarations in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, and in some OECD member states in Western Europe and North America. It examines the key elements of asset declaration systems, such as policy objectives, legal frameworks and the institutional arrangements; the categories of public officials who are required to submit declarations, and types of required information; procedures for verifying declared information, sanctions for violations, and public disclosure. The study also discusses the cost-effectiveness and overall usefulness of declaration systems. It includes four case studies covering Lithuania, Romania, Spain and Ukraine, and many additional country examples and references.
