Deadline and where to file
Ogden Dunes values are set by the local county or township assessor. File Form 130 with your assessor by June 15 of the assessment year if your Form 11 was mailed before May 1. If the Form 11 was mailed on or after May 1, the deadline is June 15 of the year the tax statements are mailed.
Reading this in fall 2026? The June 15, 2026 deadline for the January 1, 2026 assessment has passed. Your next regular chance is the January 1, 2027 assessment: if your Form 11 is mailed before May 1, 2027, file by June 15, 2027. If it is mailed on or after May 1, 2027, the deadline is June 15, 2028. A limited appeal to fix specific errors (wrong person, missed deduction or tax cap, math or clerical mistake) can still be filed up to 3 years after the taxes were first due.
