You might be eligible for the Idaho Property Tax Deferral program if you’re an Idaho resident and homeowner. The program lets you postpone paying taxes on your home and up to one acre of land. You must pay the taxes and interest later.
Note: This program won’t defer solid waste, irrigation, or other fees that government entities charge.
