Tax bills are sent out once a year in April. Taxes are always due in two installments. These due dates are on May 10 and November 10 unless those dates fall on a weekend or holiday. If this occurs, the tax due date will be the next business day.
Keep an eye out for your bill to come in the mail every April. If you do not receive a tax bill by the end of April, contact our office before the due date and request a new tax bill. Failure to receive a tax statement does not relieve the taxpayer of the responsibility for payment and penalties when delinquent. If payment is made after the tax due dates, contact the Treasurer's Office at (812) 349-7333 for payment including penalty.
All taxes not paid by the deadline will be assessed a penalty per Indiana Code 6-1.1-37-10.
Mailed payments are considered on time when postmarked by the USPS by the due date. Mail is often postmarked at least one day after it is placed in the mail. If mailing a payment close to the due date, it is recommended to have the USPS hand stamp your payment by the due date to prevent penalties.
All online and phone payments must be received by 11:59pm on the due date. Please allow at least 2-5 business days for all online and phone payments to be processed.
