ND Homeowners Are Eligible For a Property Tax Credit

At First International Bank & Trust, we're committed to helping our customers make the most of their financial opportunities. That's why we're sharing important updates like the 2026 North Dakota property tax credit which is once again available to North Dakota homeowners in 2026, and applying only takes a few minutes!

According to the Office of the North Dakota Tax Commissioner, anyone who owns and occupies a dwelling in North Dakota and uses it as their primary residence is eligible to apply for up to a $1,600 tax credit. If approved, the credit will be applied against the homeowner’s 2025 property tax obligation.

Applications are being accepted through April 1, 2026 at tax.nd.gov/prc.

A few more details:

• Applications must be completed and submitted online.
• To be eligible, you must own a home (a house, mobile home, townhome, duplex, or condo) in North Dakota and reside in it as your primary residence.
• If this is your first time applying, you’ll need your Social Security number and your parcel identification number handy to apply. To find your parcel number, you can:
  • Refer to your property tax statement
  • Visit your county’s website
  • Call your county
  • Or look it up online using the County Property Tax Portal.
• There are no age restrictions or income limitations for this credit.
• Only one Primary Residence Credit is available per household.
• If you have been approved for another type of property tax credit (the Homestead or Disabled Veteran’s Property Tax Credit) and still have a balance due, you are still eligible to receive up to a $1,600 Primary Residence Credit for any remaining property taxes you owe.

Additional Q&A information on this tax credit can be found on the State Tax Commissioner’s website. First International Bank & Trust encourages you to explore this opportunity to save money on your property tax obligations in the new year.
