Property Tax Deductions
Property tax deductions should be filed at the Auditor's office. We are located in the Courthouse Annex building at 111 American Legion Place, Suite 217 in Greenfield. If your forms were filed by title companies, mortgage companies, or real estate agents please contact our office to verify those forms have been filed timely. If you prefer to file the forms by mail all deduction forms are available at the Department of Local Government page of the State of Indiana website. You will need to include a self-addressed stamped envelope with your filing to request a receipt. If you have questions about what deductions you might be eligible for please check the Indiana tax benefits form listed below. Questions regarding eligibility or filing deadlines should be directed to the Auditor's office at 317-477-1105.
To file deductions, please bring the last five digits of your Social Security number and Drivers License number and the state your Drivers License was issued in for all property owners and spouses. This is regardless of who shows on the title of the property.
To obtain the amount of your property taxes for the current or previous tax years or for instructions on how to pay your property taxes, contact the Hancock County Treasurer at 317-477-1152.
