Click Here for 2008 Taxes Payable in 2009

Real Estate Property Tax Bills payable for 2009 were mailed May 8, 2009.  Due dates were as follows:

First Installment:   June 11, 2009
Second Installment: Sept 11, 2009

REMINDER TO HENRY COUNTY TAX PAYERS

 Henry County Treasurer Rich VerHeecke would like to remind  property tax payers that Thursday, June 11th is the first installment due date.  Payments must be in our office by that date to avoid penalty charges that cannot be waived because of Illinois State Statues.   Payments processed through the mail will also have to be post marked by June 11, 2009 to avoid the penalty.   Banks can accept first installment payments, but after Thursday they must also include the penalty amount that is stated on the tax bill stubs.

           Additional parking has been made available on the North side of the Courthouse for people who wish to come to our office to
pay taxes.

Please remember that we need the tax stubs to receipt the payments properly without additional costs.  This is true for all payment options. We have more than the usual taxpayers who are paying both installments at the same time, but to do so, we need both tax stubs included with the payment.

You will find information regarding all payment options on the back of the tax bill along with general information about your responsibility on Real Estate taxes. Please refer to this information before calling our office if you have questions about your taxes. 

You may also locate information on the Henry County Website about tax bill payments that is now updated on a daily basis.  That Website is www.henrycty.com and is under the “Payment Search” link.

             We appreciate your co-operation.    

New Tax Amounts are Now Available

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT THE 2008 HENRY COUNTY REAL ESTATE TAX BILLS HAVE BEEN PREPARED FOR MAILING

Henry County Real Estate Tax Bills were printed on May 6 and processed for mailing on May 8, 2009.  There were over 28000 bills printed and mailed before the postal rate increase.       

The 1st installment will be due June 11th and the 2nd installment will be due September 11, 2009.  Payment procedures are the same as in past years and all the information is on the back of the tax bills.  All credit card and online payments also require a parcel number.

Additional information was included in an insert that was put in the envelope for each property owner.  The insert contains information about the existing exemptions for each homeowner, plus briefly explains the new exemptions that were put into effect for this year’s tax collection.  Please call appropriate numbers that are listed if you have questions.

Every effort is made by the County offices to insure the accuracy of information that is made  available to our systems.  As addresses change, ownership, or status of exemptions, the county offices need to be notified so the records can be updated.

We mail tax bills to every property owner in the County so they can review the accuracy of the information and if someone else is to pay the taxes, like a mortgage company, or previous owner it is the responsibility of the current property owner to copy or forward it on to the right people.

This year’s tax collection will approach 60 Million dollars and every dollar plus interest will be distributed to the 175 taxing districts within the boundaries of Henry County.  Where the tax dollars are distributed from your tax bill receipts is shown on the front of the tax bill along with the figures from last year for comparison.
