CrimeaPRESS reports:
In Sevastopol, more than 4,500 pre-retirees have the right to deduct land tax; the total amount of the deduction provided exceeded 1 million 200 thousand rubles. The total amount of property tax benefits provided to 11,248 Sevastopol residents of pre-retirement age amounted to about 8 million rubles.
Tax preferences for the payment of property taxes that are due to pensioners are automatically applied to pre-retirees.
Let us remind you that pre-retirees include citizens who have no more than 5 years left before retirement.
Let’s look at examples of certain types of taxes for this category of citizens.
Many people of pre-retirement age own a garden house and, accordingly, must pay land tax for the land under it.
For such citizens, there is not a complete exemption from land tax, but a so-called tax deduction. When calculating the tax, its amount is reduced by the cadastral value of six acres of land (or 600 square meters). That is, if a pre-retirement owner owns a plot of land with an area of no more than 6 acres, land tax is not paid.
It is necessary to take into account that if a pre-retirement person owns a plot of more than 600 square meters, then the tax will be charged for exceeding this area. The situation is different if the pre-retirement owner owns several plots of land. The deduction is provided for only one plot, and the choice will automatically be made in relation to the plot for which the tax would be higher. But you need to pay for a land plot where the tax amount is less.
Other rules apply to property tax: complete exemption from property tax for an object of one type.
In practice, a pre-retirement person may own a garage, a residential building or part of it, an apartment or room, an outbuilding or structure. A citizen has the right to take advantage of property tax benefits in relation to only one type of property.
For example, if a pre-retirement person owns a garage and two apartments, then he will be able to take advantage of the benefit for the garage and one of the apartments. But the exemption no longer applies to the second apartment.
There is no need to submit an application for the benefit, since information about the acquisition of pre-retirement status is received by the tax service directly from the Social Fund of Russia.
Let us note that there are no special benefits for pre-retirees regarding transport tax in Sevastopol. The tax is not paid only if such citizens are included in other preferential categories.
For example, for disabled people of groups I and II, veterans of the Great Patriotic War, veterans of military operations on the territory of the Russian Federation and the territories of other states, there is a benefit for one vehicle with an engine power of up to 150 hp.
A complete list of rates and benefits for property taxes, including transport tax, is posted on the Internet service of the Federal Tax Service of Russia “Reference information on rates and benefits for property taxes”.
