Maddy summaryHB 1626 changes how North Dakota property tax discounts and credits are applied. It requires that the 5% early payment discount (for taxes paid by February 15) must be applied before the primary residence credit, affecting homeowners who qualify for both benefits. This adjustment ensures the discount reduces the tax bill first, potentially lowering the amount subject to the credit. The change applies to all real property taxes and mobile home taxes for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025.
