June 1, 2026 for North Carolina elderly/disabled, disabled-veteran, and circuit-breaker property-tax relief applications.
Senior relief
Mecklenburg County provides the North Carolina elderly/disabled homestead exclusion, elderly/disabled circuit-breaker deferment, and disabled-veteran homestead exclusion; the county's Assessor forms page supplies the current applications and eligibility requirements.
Valuation limits
North Carolina has no general annual assessed-value cap for ordinary real property; value follows statutory true-market-value appraisal. Present-use value for qualifying agricultural, horticultural, and forestland is a separate statutory tax reduction/deferment, and county revaluation schedules apply. Mecklenburg County's general revaluation became effective in 2023; in non-revaluation years the county carries forward values except for statutory changes such as physical changes, errors, or permitted-use changes.
For a valuation appeal, use the appeal date in the tax and filing section above. Keep your notice, supporting evidence, and proof of submission.
