Extended Deadline to Receive Discount on Property Tax Bills
Okaloosa County Tax Collector Ben Anderson encourages property owners to take advantage of the 4% early payment discount on property tax bills. The final day to receive that discount is typically the last day of November. This year, that day falls on the Sunday following the Thanksgiving holiday. Because of that, Anderson says State Statutes allow the early payment discount deadline to be extended one business day, or through Dec. 1. Customers who want to pay by check can either drop off those payments in the “drop box” at any of our branch offices or in the lobby where Tax Collector staff will be staged to receive those payments on Nov. 24, 25, and 26. Please note, if you choose to mail your tax payment, it must be postmarked by Nov. 30 to receive the 4% discount.
