New Albany Tax Bill Dates and Payment Info
Floyd County Auditor Diana Topping issued a notice for the current tax year stating: "2024 pay 2025 tax bills mailed April 9th. Due dates May 12th and November 10th." The May 12th date for the spring installment was because May 10 fell on a Saturday that year. This is a standard shift under Indiana law: when the normal May 10 deadline lands on a weekend or holiday, it moves to the next business day. The fall due date of November 10 typically stays fixed unless it also hits a weekend.
Under IC 6-1.1-22, the spring and fall installments are due May 10 and November 10 statewide. The Floyd County Treasurer, Steve Burks, handles all property tax collections in New Albany. The Treasurer's Office is at 311 Hauss Square, Room 113, New Albany, IN 47150. Phone: (812) 948-5477. Email: sburks@floydcounty.in.gov.

Late payments carry a 5% penalty within the first 30 days past the due date. The penalty increases to 10% after 30 days. New Albany property owners with delinquent accounts risk having their parcels placed on the Floyd County tax sale list if the delinquency isn't resolved before the certification deadline.
Deductions for New Albany Homeowners
New Albany homeowners can reduce their property tax bills through Indiana's deduction system under IC 6-1.1-12. The homestead deduction is the most valuable for most owners. It applies to your primary residence and reduces the assessed value used to calculate your tax. The supplemental homestead deduction adds a second reduction on top. Both must be filed with the Floyd County Auditor, Diana Topping, at 311 Hauss Square, Rooms 118 and 119, New Albany, IN 47150. Phone: (812) 948-5435. Email: dtopping@floydcounty.in.gov.
Seniors age 65 and older who meet income and assessed value limits can apply for the Over 65 deduction. The Over 65 Circuit Breaker credit caps property taxes as a percentage of income for qualifying seniors. Totally disabled veterans and surviving spouses of service members killed in action have their own deduction categories. Solar and geothermal energy system installations may also qualify for a deduction. File all applications with the Auditor before January 5 to apply to the current tax year.
The Floyd County Auditor's office is active on Facebook and uses that channel to post reminders about deduction deadlines and other important property tax notices. Following the page is an easy way to stay current on any announcements that could affect your New Albany property tax bill. Office hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Appealing a New Albany Assessment
New Albany property owners who disagree with their assessed value can appeal through the Floyd County system. Start with an informal review. Review your property record card and check for factual errors: wrong square footage, incorrect room counts, or listed improvements that don't match your property. Call the Floyd County Assessor at (812) 948-5420 or email assessor@floydcounty.in.gov to request the informal review. Many assessment errors are corrected at this stage without needing a formal appeal.
If the informal review doesn't fix the problem, file Form 130 with the Floyd County Property Tax Assessment Board of Appeals (PTABOA). New Albany's PTABOA currently includes Marvin Schmidt and David Riley. The deadline for filing an appeal is 45 days after the county mails your Form 11 assessment notice. Check the mailing date on your Form 11 to calculate the exact deadline. The appeal right is set out under IC 6-1.1-35.
After PTABOA, you can appeal to the Indiana Board of Tax Review, and after that to the Indiana Tax Court. Most New Albany property owners resolve their cases before reaching those higher levels. Bringing a recent private appraisal or comparable sales data to any formal hearing strengthens your position.
New Albany Plat Maps and County Records
Plat maps for Floyd County, including all New Albany parcels, are available in Room 100 of the Hauss Square building at 311 Hauss Square, New Albany, IN 47150.
