North Hempstead Receiver of Taxes Extends Normal Business Hours
North Hempstead, NY – Town of North Hempstead Receiver of Taxes Mary Jo Collins is pleased to announce that the Receiver of Taxes Office at 200 Plandome Road, Manhasset, NY 11030 will extend normal business hours on the following dates and times. Staff will be available to accept tax payments and/or answer any questions related to property taxes.
• Tuesday, February 6, 2024, open from 9:00AM to 6:00PM
• Wednesday, February 7, 2024, from 9:00AM to 6:00PM
• Thursday, February 8, 2024, from 9:00AM to 6:00PM
We are extending the office hours to make it more convenient for those constituents from the Town of North Hempstead who want to make their 2024 General tax payments in person. Taxpayers may also make their payment through our payment portal which you can access from the Town of North Hempstead website or type into your web browser (General Tax Payment) https://billpay.forte.net/northhempsteadgeneraltax/.
Paying your Taxes Online
The Receiver of Taxes Office accepts E-Checks, major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover), and debit cards (Mastercard and Visa). The service fees are as follows:
• Electronic checks: $1.75 flat fee
• Credit cards: 2.3% of total amount
• Visa and Mastercard debit cards only: $3.95 flat fee
New York General Municipal Law requires people paying their property taxes by credit card to also pay the fees associated with the payment transaction. The fees go directly to the company managing our online payments, not to the Town of North Hempstead. The vendor splits the fees with the credit card companies. The Town does not profit from the service.
The last day to pay your first half 2024 General Tax without penalty is Tuesday February 13, 2024, with our office open from 9:00AM to 7:00PM.
Should you have any questions please call us at (516)-869-7800 or email us at tax@northhempsteadny.gov
