The Whitley County real property tax roll will be open for inspection from May 6th through May 20th, 2024 under the supervision of the property valuation administrator (PVA) or one of the deputies, any person may inspect the tax roll.

This is the January 1, 2024 assessment on which state, county, and school taxes for 2024 will be due about September 15, 2024.

The tax roll is in the office of the property valuation administrator in the county courthouse and may be inspected between the hours 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.

Any taxpayer desiring to appeal an assessment on real property made by the PVA must first request a conference with the PVA office. Conferences may be held via videoconference, where available, or by telephone; or you may exchange correspondence requesting a conference with the PVA via email or fax. Written documentation supporting your opinion of value will continue to be required. However, you will be instructed on the best method to submit your documentation after contacting our office regarding your request to have a conference.
