What is Supplemental Information for Agricultural Classification – Osceola County, FL?
Supplemental Information for Agricultural Classification is the Osceola County Property Appraiser's questionnaire that supports a request for agricultural classification of land. It is completed and returned together with the original signed Application for Agricultural Classification (DR-482).
The form is headed "Agricultural Classification Supplemental Information" and opens with Florida Statute 193.461 (3)(b): only lands used primarily for bona fide agricultural purposes are classified agricultural, and "bona fide agricultural purposes" means good faith commercial agricultural use of the land. The questions test that standard:
- whether you bought the land intending to earn income from its agricultural productivity;
- whether you operate a bona fide agricultural business in Osceola County, and its name;
- whether you, or your lessee, use other Osceola County land for agriculture, and whether this property will operate in conjunction with it, with parcel ID numbers for each;
- whether you file a Schedule F (Profit and Loss from Farming) with your IRS income tax return;
- your short-term and long-term agricultural plans for the property.
It is not the application. DR-482 is the application; this form only supplies the supporting answers. The applicant certifies that the answers are complete, true and correct to the best of their knowledge, and signs and dates the form.
Who needs to file Supplemental Information for Agricultural Classification – Osceola County, FL?
Owners who are applying for agricultural classification of land in Osceola County complete this form and include it with their Application for Agricultural Classification (DR-482). The form tells you to send it with the original signed DR-482, so it is not filed alone.
The questions also reach beyond the owner. Questions 3 and 4 ask about other land used by you "or the lessee, if the property is leased," so an applicant whose land is leased answers for the lessee's agricultural use as well.
The applicant signs the form. It has lines for the printed name, signature, date, phone number and e-mail, and it prints no rule about anyone else signing on the applicant's behalf. The form states no exclusions of its own; for eligibility questions, contact the Osceola County Property Appraiser's Office at (407) 742-5000.
When to file Supplemental Information for Agricultural Classification – Osceola County, FL
Submit this form before March 1st of the current tax year, as the form instructs. It travels with the original signed Application for Agricultural Classification (DR-482), so it shares that timing: there is no separate due date printed on the supplement.
Prepare the answers before you submit, because several questions depend on records you may need to gather. If you file Schedule F with your IRS return, you must provide a copy; if you do not, you must provide documentation of your income and expenses, such as tax documents, receipts, payments and contracts. If you have other agricultural parcels in Osceola County, have their parcel ID numbers ready for questions 3 and 4.
Documents you need
- The original signed Application for Agricultural Classification (DR-482), which this supplement must accompany.
- A copy of your Schedule F (Profit and Loss from Farming), only if you file one with your IRS income tax return.
- If you do not file Schedule F: supporting documentation of your income and expenses, such as tax documents, receipts, payments and contracts.
- Any other documentation you would like the Property Appraiser to take into consideration; the form invites it when you do not file Schedule F.
- Parcel ID numbers of your other agricultural land in Osceola County, written on the form, if you answer Yes to question 3 or 4.
