To account for the difference between the
above tax rates, DOF has adjusted the 3rd and
4th quarter tax (or 2nd half tax) as follows:
- 3rd Quarter Tax - accounts for the
3rd quarter difference in tax, as well as an
equal difference for the 1st quarter tax,
- 4th Quarter Tax - accounts for the
4th quarter difference in tax, as well as an
equal difference in the 2nd quarter tax,
- 2nd Half Tax - accounts for
the 2nd half difference in tax, as well as
an equal difference for the 1st half tax.
Generally, 1, 2 and 3 family "residential"
taxes have been increased and all "commercial"
taxes have been increased.
