If It's April, It"s Tax Paying Time

April 9, 2012


If you are a last minute type person, April is the month when you will have to pay both property and income taxes. Of course, if you are one who pays promptly when your property tax bill arrives above the end of October and you pay the taxes for the entire 2011-2012 tax year, you will only have to be concerned with your income taxes this month. You could also have filed them any time the first quarter of this year and you will be free of last minute stress.


It is now the eleventh hour for your property taxes. The last day to pay the second half of the 2011-2012 property taxes is tomorrow, April 10, 2012. In case you are sometimes confused about property taxes, the property tax year is not a calendar year. It runs from July 1 to June 30. The second half payment now due covers January 1 2012 to June 30, 2012. Hopefully you paid the first installment by December 10, 2011.


If you need to check the status of your property taxes, you can google San Bernardino County Tax Collector. On this site you can find your current bill plus the history of payments.


If you purchased real estate in 2011 or this Spring, you might want to check on the Taxes paid. They may or may not have been paid through the escrow process.
