A: When filing an amended petition for tax certiorari in New York, you need to be aware of strict timelines. Generally, service must be completed within the same timeframe as the original petition, which is typically within 10 days after the petition is filed with the court. This means you should act promptly to serve all required parties.

In tax certiorari proceedings, the parties usually include the municipality, school district, and other interested entities. It's essential to ensure that all involved are notified properly, as failure to serve them on time could jeopardize your case.

If you find that time is running short, consider requesting an extension from the court. However, it's always better to stay ahead of deadlines to avoid complications.
