The IVP Tool: Open 24/7/365

You may be getting ready to take off a few days over the holidays, but the IVP Tool keeps on ticking. 

Maybe you just received an Enhanced STAR application from a snowbird. There’s no need to wait to enter the property into the IVP Tool; it’s always there for you!

Would you rather transmit IVP forms to ORPTS for data entry? Easy! See How to transmit IVP forms to the Tax Department. Just remember the cardinal rule: Regular email is not a secure way to transmit anything with a Social Security number. So use the secure email option described on that webpage.

Key IVP links:

• Log into the Online Assessment Community to access the tool.
• IVP Tool User Guide
• IVP Tool Webinar (December, 2019)
• Administering the Enhanced STAR IVP
