THERE HAS BEEN widespread confusion about paying the local property tax for next year after Revenue sent letters to hundreds of thousands of homeowners in recent weeks.

In distributing letters asking homeowners to outline how they intend to pay the tax for next year by this month, and including options to pay it now, before the end of 2013, Revenue has caused concern and confusion for property owners.

So, we want to help.

If you’ve received a letter or are a bit confused by all the hullabaloo in the media and the various politicians saying things like “go into the internet” then we’ll break it down.

Leave any questions or queries you have in the comments section below and we’ll post answers later.
