Hoosic Valley Central School District

A Shared Goal, A Shared Responsibility

Property taxes are a major source of the district's revenue. It is important that we receive payment of these taxes to continue our delivery of a quality education. Please keep this in mind as the bills arrive in late August. We appreciate your support of the district and all the different activities our students are involved with throughout the school year.

Questions can be directed to Chris Nickerson at (518) 753-4458 ext. 1591.

Important: If you receive a tax bill for a property that has been sold or otherwise disposed of, it is your responsibility to forward the tax bill on to the new owners or return to the Tax Collector, with the name and address of the new owner if available.

Tax information is now available online through the Info Tax Online Service. You can obtain a copy of your bill or check the status of a payment. Go to https://infotaxonline.com/ and scroll down to Hoosic Valley.

You may be eligible for the NYS School Tax Relief program that provides an exemption from or credit* toward school taxes. To find out more about the STAR program, visit the New York State website at https://www.tax.ny.gov/pit/property/star/ .

* The STAR Credit Program went in to effect in 2016. If you have never registered for STAR or you purchased your home after August 1, 2015, you need to register with New York State for the STAR credit rather than exemption. If eligible, you will receive your benefit by check each year. 

You may be eligible for a senior citizen tax exemption. You have until taxable status date to file. For information, please call or write your local assessor's office or the County Real Property Tax Services Department at 270-2780

Veterans exemptions do NOT apply for school tax purposes.

If you are 65 years old or disabled and own and occupy a 1, 2 or 3 family residence, you may designate a consenting adult third party to receive duplicate copies of your tax bills and notices of unpaid taxes. Applications will be sent to you if you contact your local tax collector and provide a self addressed stamped envelope. These applications must be filed with your local tax collector within a 60 day period prior to the levy of the tax.

Applies only if noted on the front of this bill (lower left hand corner). Taxes from one or more prior levies remained due and owing when the statement of taxes was prepared. Payment of the arrears should be made to:

Chief Fiscal Officer
Rensselaer County
1600 Seventh Avenue
Troy, NY 12180

Contact (518) 270-2754 or 270-2755 for the amount due. Continued failure to pay all taxes will result in the loss of the property.
