What is Certificate of Taxes Due for Real Property – Denver, CO?
The Certificate of Taxes Due for Real Property is the City and County of Denver form package used to ask the Treasury Division of the Department of Finance for a certificate of taxes due on one specifically identified property. It consists of an instruction page and a Request for Certificate of Taxes Due for Real Property on page 2.
The request has a requesting-entity block and a property block. The requesting entity gives a company name, mailing address, contact name, email address and phone number. The property block asks for the parcel ID, the property address, the owner, the legal description and an order ID. The form marks company name, contact name, email address, parcel ID, property address, owner and legal description as required fields.
The instructions note that some information, such as the parcel number and the legal description, may be found online at http://www.denvergov.org/property.
A processing fee applies to each certificate issued for a specifically identified property. The instructions say how it is paid, and the Treasury Division can confirm the current amount.
This request is separate from the annual property tax statement. Denver's Treasury page says owners view and download their statements online through the property search tool, so you use this form only when you need a certificate.
Who needs to file Certificate of Taxes Due for Real Property – Denver, CO?
The form is completed by whoever is requesting a Certificate of Taxes Due for a specifically identified property in Denver. The request block is built for a requesting entity: it asks for a company name, a contact name and an email address, all marked as required, plus a mailing address and phone number.
You need the property's details before you start. The form requires the parcel ID, the property address, the owner and the legal description. If you do not have them, the instructions say some of this information, such as the parcel number and legal description, may be found online at http://www.denvergov.org/property.
One request covers one specifically identified property, and the processing fee applies to each certificate.
You do not need this form to see or pay your own property taxes. The Denver Treasury page says property owners can view and download tax statements online and can pay from the same page. The form printed does not describe who may sign for another party; contact the Treasury Division with any eligibility question.
When to file Certificate of Taxes Due for Real Property – Denver, CO
