A state law, known as the Local Elections Act (House Bill 407-2019) was delayed at the top of November due to a mill levy question presented on the ballot. The results of those votes determined how much New Mexico property owners would owe this year. The mill levy question resulted in delayed mailing and due dates for first half property tax payments in 14 New Mexico counties.
Generally, property tax statements are mailed on November 1 and become delinquent after December 10.
New Mexico tax statements will now be mailed on December 1, due December 10, and delinquent after January 10, 2022.
The second installment is still due on April 10 and delinquent after May 10.
