ND tax credits prove popular

The deadline has passed for North Dakota homeowners who wanted to take advantage of the Primary Residence Credit.

The program was established by the 2023 legislature and offered up to a $500 credit against 2024 property tax obligations.

The North Dakota Tax Department says a total of 137,204 homeowners applied prior to the March 31st deadline – including 11,677 property owners in Grand Forks County.

House Bill 1158 set aside $103,225,000 to fund the credit.

Lawmakers also made adjustments to the Homestead Property Tax Credit including a boost in the income limits to $70,000 dollars. As a result of the move Grand Forks officials say they have seen a 50% increase in applications this year. As many as 1,000 homeowners in the city are seeking the credit.

The legislature set aside $43,500,000 dollars to support the program.
