    On Petition Form DR486 Sections I and II must be completed by the Petitioner for real property, agricultural classification, or exemption appeal and late filling.

    Under Section I, please check:

    Box 1 to appeal your property's Market Value or if a property owner's association is filing on common area property.

    Box 2 to appeal denial of Homestead Exemption.

    Box 3 to appeal denial of Agricultural Classification.

    Box 4 for Late Filing, Homestead Exemption.

    Box 5 for Late Filing, Agricultural Classification.

    Section III must be completed if either Box 1 or Box 3 is checked.

    Section IV requires that the Petition be sworn to by the Petitioner. You may have the petition notarized or you may bring the form to the nearest Clerk of Circuit Court to be attested.
