(3) Except as provided in subsection (s) of this section, if a credit is
granted for an eligible application received after May 1, property tax is not due on the
property until 30 days after the revised tax bill is sent to the homeowner.

separate from the county tax bill, the county may require the homeowner to submit:
(i) the separate tax bill; or
(ii) proof of payment of the separate tax bill.
(n) If a municipal corporation or a special taxing district issues a tax bill to a
homeowner, the Department shall include the property tax rate of the municipal
corporation or the special taxing district in calculating the property tax credit under

paid under this section.
