Can’t Pay Your Taxes Before the Deadline?
For taxpayers who are unable to pay their full current year tax bill by the January 31st deadline, the Tax Office offers an Installment Payment Agreement plan.
This plan allows you to make equal monthly payments on your current year taxes and can be customized to suit your specific financial needs. You choose the monthly amount you are able to pay and we will calculate the number on months required to pay off the balance within the allotted timeframe. Or, if you specify the number of months you would like to pay, we will calculate the monthly payment for you. You may even pay a portion of the taxes up front in order to reduce penalty and interest costs.
You may start by entering your account number below or by clicking the Payment Installment FAQs for more information.
