“The tax board had planned to enforce compliance by adding three lines to 2011 state-tax returns that would require property owners to show their parcel number, total property tax bill and the deductible amount. But it postponed those changes until 2012 returns. This year, it is hoping to educate the public and tax preparers. It estimates that voluntary compliance could generate about $20 million in additional tax revenue this year.”
Nothing like announcing this a week into filings. It was awful nice of them to back down on enforcement for this year for people that had already filed.
