Westin St John Master Thread - Part 3 [Dec. 2017 and forward]

This is reminding me; has anyone in VGV gotten their tax bill yet? I am going to check the tax website but I feel I have usually gotten it by now.

No, I was wondering the same...

I paid June 2020 and July 2019.
Was reading in the Wyndham STT Facebook group that payment was due 6/30/21….

June 30, 2021 was the end of an amnesty for late property tax payments. Since I just got my weeks there in the last year and wasn't sure about the due dates, I checked on the website and found that there were late ones and had to get them to email me the bills in order to pay them by then. Still haven't got them in the mail.

I thought that was just for overdue tax bills. An amnesty period.

Sure would be nice if a consistent tax due date was established. I think I received notice last year in June that it was due in August. If it's due in August again, would be nice to know.

Thx for the correction. But as my payment history indicates we should have had our bill by now.

This area . It's just a strange waste of space.

This layout is due to being on the first floor of Bay Vista. The ground floor units have you enter thru the living room whereas anything on the 2nd and 3rd floors enter from the rear hallway. This closet would be the entry door in the higher levels. HTH

I got my VGV tax bill a week or so ago

We have been informed that the Government of the United States Virgin Islands (“USVI”) is commencing with mailing out the 2021 property tax bills. The USVI online portal should allow all owners of record, as of January 1, 2021, to pay their property tax bill. The deadline to pay the 2021 tax is August 31, 2021. After this date, late charges of 1% per month will begin to accrue. If you do not receive your property tax bill, you will need to look up your account online to get your property tax bill amount. You should be able to access your account through the USVI online portal. Click on “Public Searches” in the middle of the page. Search for your property account by parcel or primary Owner. Parcel results will be displayed. Under "Results," click on "Show Details." Parcel information, assessment, tax bill information, and tax credits should be reflected. Click on "Tax Bill Information." You should be able to view Tax Account data. The 2021 Tax Account will be displayed at the top, along with both the bill amount and amount due. We have been informed that property tax payments can be made by check payable to the “Government of the USVI” by mail to: Office of the Lieutenant Governor/Office of the Tax Collector 5049 Kongens Gade St. Thomas, USVI 00802-6487 Be sure to include your parcel number on your check. We have been informed that credit card payments may be made using an authorization form. If you do not receive a property tax bill, it might be because the USVI has an incorrect address on file. We recommend you contact the USVI Division of Real Property Tax at one of the below contact numbers or via the USVI online portal prior to the payment deadline date. If you are in receipt of your 2021 property tax bill and know both your parcel control number and invoice number, payment may be made through the USVI online portal.

Did you receive your tax bill yet? I haven't. Just the emails from Vistana for the two sections.

Nothing yet.

Your post about property taxes has some weird attachment that just cycles without showing anything.

I am not waiting for VSE to send our property tax bill. It should be online at the USVI Lt Gov website.

We paid online last week. Never did receive a tax bill. They acknowledged our payment quickly.

@DavidnRobin

I thought you needed a number from the back of the paper bill to pay online?
I will check it later today.

If you know your plot number, you can get around not having your bill. It takes some looking, though. I go through this every year...and never remember just how I did it.

You have to find a platinum plus 3 bedroom pool villa. Check the St. John realtors sites.

I ended up using the payment authorization form since I could see my parcel # and amount due on the USVI website.

Emailed the form to lgopayments@lgo.vi.gov at 9:30 am and received this reply at 12:30 pm

Just got the owners update email from our owner-elected directors. Does anyone have a copy of the draft budget they refer to? I don't seem to have received it.

For Bay Vista, the biggest increase is due to:

Insurance: about 54% increase, about $90 per unit per week.
Housekeeping: about 10% increase, about $30 per unit per week.

Does anyone know of a good nail salon on St John, preferably in Cruz Bay? Thanks!

Heading to WSJ on 10/23. Arriving STT from CABO (overnighting in Dallas). Any issues STT accepting a negative Covid test from Mexico within the required time frame? We are just combining a Westin Cabo trip with a WSJ vacation. We were told they are testing at the Westin Cabo for our flight back to the US. Thanks.
