Can I use my Online Banking or Bill Payment services to pay my property taxes?

The Tax Collector recommends that you do NOT use these services to pay property taxes. If you choose to use this method of payment make sure to schedule your payment date 10 business days in advance. The reason is the  Internal Revenue Code 7502 states that the Tax Collector must process a payment, received after the delinquency date, as of the date of the United States Postal Services (USPS) postmark. Banking institutions use permit imprint presorted envelopes, which USPS does not post mark. In The absence of a postmark, we apply penalties based on the date we receive payment.  See Idaho Code 63-217
