Allen County Property Tax Assessment
Board of Appeals (PTABOA)
A taxpayer has the right to initiate an appeal of the current year's assessed valuation. A taxpayer may appeal an assessment by filing a Form 130 with the assessing official. The taxpayer must file a separate petition for each parcel.
An appeal of the current year’s real property assessment may have two different filing deadlines which are based on when the Form 11 Notice of Assessment is mailed. If the Form 11 is mailed before May 1 of the assessment year, the filing deadline is June 15 of that year. If the Form 11 is mailed after April 30 of the assessment year, the filing deadline is June 15 in the year that the tax statements are mailed (IC 6-1.1-15-1.1).
All PTABOA meetings will begin at 9:00 am and will be held in Suite 419 of the Edwin Rousseau Centre located at 1 East Main Street, Fort Wayne, Indiana 46802.
