All active deployment military personnel, including activated reservists, are eligible for property tax deferral pursuant to the Soldiers and Sailors Relief Act. The Soldiers and Sailors Relief Act applies to all military personnel regardless of duration of military service, financial status or where they are stationed. Qualifying individuals may elect to defer the payment of their property taxes while called to service to defend the needs of our nation.

Instead of the mandated annual interest rate of 18% imposed under California Law, the unpaid taxes are reduced to interest at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum. While the Act provides for 6% interest per annum of deferred taxes, the San Joaquin County Treasurer-Tax Collector will waive the interest, penalty, and costs, in addition, tax sale provisions will be suspended on all deferred property taxes.
