May I make payments on delinquent taxes?
Yes! You may make payments on any amount toward your back taxes. However, interest will continue to accrue until existing taxes are paid. Payments are applied first to interest then to penalties and then to taxes of the most recent year. No payments will be applied to delinquent taxes after September 1 until the current taxes are paid in full. After that, payments will be applied to delinquent taxes.
