BISMARCK, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – The Primary Residence Credit (PRC) was established during the 2023 Legislative Session under House Bill 1158. The credit provides all North Dakota homeowners with the option to apply for a state property tax credit through the North Dakota Office of State Tax Commissioner.

State Tax Commissioner Brian Kroshus said homeowners with an approved application may receive up to a $500 credit against their 2024 property tax obligation. To be eligible for the credit, you must own a home (house, mobile home, town home, duplex, or condo) in North Dakota, and reside in it as your primary residence.

He said there are No Age Restrictions or Income Limitations for this credit. Only one Primary Residence Credit is available per household.

Kroshus said the application process will be online only, but there will be a help line available after January 1.

The Office of State Tax Commissioner will start accepting Primary Residence Credit applications on January 1, 2024. Applications are due by March 31, 2024.

Those applying for the credit may be eligible to apply for more than one type of property tax credit, including the Homestead Property Tax Credit and the Disabled Veterans Property Tax Credit. For more details go to Tax.ND.GOV/PRC
