A landowner reached out to me inquiring about property taxes. Normally they are due 1st Half/Full Year: November 10 – December 10 and 2nd Half: April 10 – May 10. I sent an email to Kimberly at Catron County who responded by saying:
Thank you for reaching out to me. I am sure many people in Catron County have the same questions as you. When I stepped into the role last Monday, I found out that the 2025 bills wouldn’t be ready to go out on time. So, I immediately worked with the New Mexico Property Tax Division to get an official extension and we got it!
Here’s what that means for you and everyone in your subdivision:
No late fees will be charged as long as payment is made by January 10, 2025
Tax bills will be mailed by December 1, 2025
The first half of your taxes will be due by January 10, 2026
My goal is to make this process as smooth and transparent as possible for everyone in Catron County. If you or any of the landowners have any questions or just want to talk through anything, please feel free to reach out. I’m here to help! I have also updated the Treasurer’s page on the county website that has more information if you would like to read more on the situation
