Deadline for Filing

14 days from date of Appeal to BCA mailing grievance result BCA Hearings Begin 14 days after appeal deadline. These are the last dates to meet statutory requirements without requesting an extension of time from the Director of Filing, however, may occur anytime after April 1 and prior to these dates. A word about the deadlines Taxpayer’s deadlines. The law contemplates “the grievance meeting” to be a one-day affair, while also recognizing that grievances often spill over into additional days. The statutes therefore provide that a grievance meeting continues until all grievances are heard. The continuance of the grievance meeting, however, does not change the deadline by which grievances must be lodged. Taxpayers who wish to grieve must get a written notice of appeal to the board of listers on or before the grievance date stated in the change of appraisal notice. Any grievance notice received after that day – even if received while the listers are hearing grievances due to continuances – does not meet the requirement of being filed “at or prior to the time fixed for hearing appeals,” is untimely and should not be heard.
