Or. Admin. Code § 150-308-0410 - Cancellation of Personal Property Assessments

(1) The assessor must cancel the personal property assessment for any taxpayer whose taxable personal property in the county has a total assessed value (AV) below the threshold value computed annually under ORS 308.250(5)(a).

(2) The department will notify the assessor of the threshold value no later than March 1 of the tax year for which the threshold value applies.

(3) After the first year of cancellation, the taxpayer must complete and file Form 150-553-004, Confidential Personal Property Return, annually with the assessor by the personal property return due date under ORS 308.290. The taxpayer must check the box that indicates the assessor cancelled the AV the previous year and must include the following:

(a) Taxpayer's name, address, and phone number;

(b) If applicable, the business name, address, and type of business;

(c) Location of property, if different from (a) and (b) above; and

(d) Assessor's account number.

(4) The department will provide to the assessor the Confidential Personal Property Return on which the taxpayer may make the claim in subsection (3).

(5) If the taxpayer fails to file the form required in section (3) of this rule, the assessor will determine the AV of taxable personal property based on available information. Such information may be obtained from a phone call to the taxpayer or a review of taxpayer's property or records. If the assessor finds that the total AV of the taxpayer's property within the county is equal to or greater than the threshold value, the assessor must place the computed value on the next assessment and tax roll.

(6) The assessor may review the taxpayer's taxable personal property or business records to verify that the value of the taxable personal property is less than the threshold value. If the assessor finds that the value of the taxable personal property is equal to or greater than the threshold value, the assessor must add the value of all taxable personal property to the assessment and tax roll.
