If you have an item on your personal property statement that you did not own on July 1, please contact the office of the Commissioner of Revenue at 434-738-6191. Any correction must be made by the Commissioner of Revenue. The Treasurer can not process payments with items marked off your statement until you contact the Commissioner of Revenue for a correction.
