Residents of Ponta Grossa who are entitled to the IPTU exemption need to be aware of the time frame for applying for the benefit. The application period ends next Tuesday (November 3). The request can be made online or in person at the Municipal Palace.

Prefeitura de Ponta Grossa concluded, on Wednesday (28), the mutant "Exemption in Action", which registered 177 attendances at the Social Assistance Reference Centers (CRAS) Costa Rica and New Russia.

During three days, the participants received guidance on the criteria for exemption and reduction of the Urban Land and Territorial Tax (UPT). The teams also assisted in the completion of documents and in the protocol of the requests.

The initiative was developed by the Public Prosecutor’s Office of Paraná (MPPR), in partnership with Prefeitura de Ponta Grossa, through the Legal Social Assistance Foundation of Ponta Grossa (FASPG) and the Municipal Secretariat of Administration, in addition to the State University of Ponta Grossa (UEPG), through the extension of the ZQXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The president of FASPG, Tatyana Belo, stressed the importance of facilitating the access of the population to tax benefits.

"The mutant has brought the service closer to those who need it most. The CRAS are the gateway to social assistance in the neighborhoods, and taking care there allowed many families to know and access a right that they often did not even know they had," he said.
