4. I filed my individual income tax return with the Commissioner of the Revenue and I owe taxes. Can I make partial payments to the City Treasurer?

Yes. Partial payments are accepted until the end of the year provided you have executed an agreement with the City Treasurer's Office. However, please note that entering into an agreement does not relieve penalty and interest assessed by the State.

5. What happens if my account is not paid off at the end of the year?

All payments are transmitted to the Department of Taxation to update individual records. Collection procedures are then handled at the state level.

6. I've recently received a letter from the Department of Taxation regarding a past due balance. Can I make payment arrangements with the City Treasurer's Office?

No. The City Treasurer's office only accepts payments for current year estimated taxes and any balance due from the previous year. If you have received a letter from the Department of Taxation, you must contact them directly.
