Tuesday June 30th is the Deadline to Avoid Delinquent Colleciton Penalties - Kingwood

Delinquent taxpayers have until June 30th to pay their 2008 property taxes or obtain an installment agreement with the Harris County Tax Office. After June 30th, the account is turned over to the County's delinquent tax attorney for collection. 

“Please don’t let your property tax account incur any more fees. If you miss this deadline, you will pay much more, a total of 23.1 percent in added penalties. You can choose to ‘Skip the Lines’ and pay your property taxes in full or make a partial payment online at www.hctax.net or contact my office to set up an installment agreement,” Vasquez explained. “Remember that we are here to help you.”

Taxpayers who wish to set up an installment agreement must not have any prior delinquencies on their property tax account.

The Tax Office accepts full or partial payment of property taxes. Taxpayers may use any combination of credit cards and/or e-checks for payment online at www.hctax.net. Credit card and e-check payments are also accepted by touch-tone telephone by calling 713-368-CARD (2273). We accept American Express, Discover, and MasterCard credit cards, and VISA credit or debit cards. A non-refundable surcharge of 2.15 percent will be added to each credit card payment transaction processed. VISA debit cards will be charged a flat fee of $3.95. E-checks are free.

If taxpayers wish to arrange for an installment agreement, or have any other questions regarding their property tax account, taxpayers should contact the Tax Office at 713-368-2000.
