The PAID (Penalty and Interest Discount) program gives taxpayers with older unpaid bills the chance to save up to 80% of the penalty and interest they owe.
- You can save:
- 80% of accrued penalty and interest on unpaid bills issued on or before December 31, 2003
- 50% of accrued penalty and interest on unpaid bills issued after December 31, 2003 and on or before December 31, 2006.
- Unpaid tax bills are bad for your credit rating and can lead to liens and other enforcement actions.
- We’re increasing our efforts to collect unpaid bills. If you act now and pay what you owe, you can take advantage of the savings and avoid collection actions.
