No. If you paid property tax in 2024 it goes on a 2024 tax return. It is not about the year the tax was "for"--- it is about when you paid it.

So the taxes for 2023 paid late, and the 2024 taxes paid on time in 2024 will both be filed on next year's tax return?

Yes it will give you a bigger deduction next year if you itemize.

Still have questions?
