N.M. Admin. Code § 3.6.7.14

Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 21, November 5, 2024

Section 3.6.7.14 - VALUATION DATE

A.TAXABLE STATUS OF PROPERTY FIXED AS OF JANUARY 1 OF EACH YEAR: January 1 of each year is the date which determines the tax status of all property subject to valuation for property taxation purposes, except livestock valued as of the date and in the manner prescribed under Section 7-36-21 NMSA 1978. This status includes determination of whether the property is exempt from property taxation. Therefore, if property is not entitled to exemption from property taxation under the Property Tax Code on January 1 of the tax year, it is not exempted from taxation for that tax year. The sale or transfer of the property to a tax exempt owner at a later date during the tax year does not entitle the property to exemption for that tax year.

B.PROPERTY DESTROYED OR IMPROVED DURING THE YEAR: If property is destroyed or improved during the year, any resulting increase or decrease in valuation will not be reflected until January 1 of the following year, and no correction, reassessment, or proration of taxes is authorized because of such increase or decrease in valuation.
