Residents of Ponta Grossa may be entitled to discount or exemption on IPTU; find out how to request it

Residents who wish to apply for exemption or discount in the IPTU in Ponta Grossa will have the opportunity to receive free guidance between October 26 and 28. The Public Prosecutor's Office of Paraná (MPPR), in partnership with municipal institutions and the State University of Ponta Grossa (UEPG), will carry out mutiation to assist taxpayers interested in knowing the requirements and submit applications related to the Urban Land Tax.

The initiative is part of the “Exemption in Action” project and will have services in the Social Assistance Reference Centers (CRAS) Costa Rica and New Russia, always from 9 am to 2 pm. The proposal is to facilitate the access of the population to information on tax benefits provided for in municipal legislation.

During the meetings, residents will be able to clarify doubts, verify what conditions need to be met and receive help to fulfill the tax exemption or discount requests.

Who can apply for exemption or discount in the IPTU?

The action is aimed at residents interested in verifying whether they are entitled to the benefits available in the municipal legislation.

During the riots, the teams will provide information on the criteria required for each benefit modality, in addition to guiding the taxpayers on the procedures necessary to formalize the applications.

It is important to note that the service does not guarantee the automatic granting of the exemption or discount. Each request must observe the rules provided for in the legislation and pass the analysis of the competent municipal body.

The MPPR did not inform, in the disclosure of the initiative, a specific list of mandatory documents for attendance. Therefore, interested parties can seek guidance in advance through the official channels of the institution.

UEPG will participate in the free calls

The mutirão is organized by the Public Prosecutor’s Office at Ponta Grossa and the 6th District Attorney’s Office, in partnership with the Municipal Foundation for Social Assistance, the Municipal Secretariat for Administration and the UEPG Law Course.

The university will participate through the extension project Oficina Legal, which develops activities of free legal guidance to the community.

Academics and teachers will be present at the places of attendance to explain the legal requirements and assist residents in completing the necessary forms.

The participation of UEPG seeks to bring legal guidance services closer to the population, especially those who find it difficult to understand administrative procedures or access information about their rights.
