## Messages to send Mindie
- Once a year: "Every year on 1 May at 10am remind me property tax for the flat is due by 30 June"
- Two instalments: "Every year on 1 April and 1 October at 10am remind me the property tax instalment is due this month"
- Several properties: "Note: property tax IDs, flat 4B is 1234-567, shop is 8910-112"

A property tax reminder on WhatsApp is a message a few weeks before each property tax payment is due. With Mindie, send "every year on 1 May at 10am remind me property tax for the flat is due by 30 June" once, and it comes every year.

Property tax comes once or twice a year, which is exactly why it's forgotten. Penalties and interest add up, and some places offer a discount for paying early that's easy to miss.

## When to set it

- **A few weeks before the deadline,** or before an early-payment discount ends.
- **One yearly reminder per instalment** if you pay in two parts.
- **One set per property** if you own more than one.

## Why property tax slips

- **It's rare.** Once a year is too seldom to remember.
- **Notices get lost.** Paper notices arrive by post and go into a drawer.
- **IDs and portals are hard to find.** The property ID is never at hand when you pay.

## Habits that help

- **Note the property IDs** in Mindie once.
- **Keep the receipt** as a screenshot note after each payment.
- **Photograph the tax notice** when it arrives and send it to Mindie to set the reminder.

## How Mindie handles it

Send the reminder with the date, or a photo of the notice. Mindie confirms each one and messages you when it's due, in your timezone.

## What Mindie doesn't do

- **It doesn't calculate or pay tax,** and this isn't tax advice.
- **It doesn't know local deadlines.** You give it the date.

## FAQ

### Do you know my property tax due date?
No. Due dates differ by city and country. Check your local authority's notice and give Mindie the date.

### Some places give a discount for early payment. Can I plan for that?
Yes. Set the reminder before the early-payment date rather than the final deadline.

### Can I keep the receipts?
Send a screenshot of each payment receipt as a note, and ask for it when you need it.

### How early should I be reminded?
A few weeks before the due date gives you time to find the bill and move money. Add a second reminder closer to the date.

### Can I set it from the tax notice?
Yes. Send a photo, and Mindie reads the date and amount and checks them with you before setting the reminder.
