First half tax deadline just ahead | |
December 8, 2017 | |
Tax notices were mailed in November and may be paid in two installments; the first half by December 20 and the remainder by June 20, 2018. Any portion of the assessed tax may be paid at any time, but if there is a remaining balance on the first half after December 20, a two-percent late charge is immediately applied. After January 1, interest of one percent per month is added. Tax payments can be mailed to the Treasurer’s Office, P.O. Box 218, Bonners Ferry, ID 83805, or can be brought to our office in the Boundary County Courthouse, 6452 Kootenai Street, in downtown Bonners Ferry. Office hours are 9 a.m. To 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Payments that are mailed to the Treasurer’s Office must be postmarked by December 20, 2017, to avoid penalty. MasterCard, Discover and Visa cards are accepted in the treasurer's office. You can also pay by telephone with a credit card through Official Payments Corporation at 1-877-203-6083. You will be asked to enter your bill number, a daytime phone number, year of tax bill you are paying, amount you are paying, and your credit card information. We also have PayStation and Official Payments on our website. There is a “convenience fee” for these services. |
