2023 Payable 2024 Tax Bill Press Release
Posted by Iroquois County
County Treasurer, Kurt Albers, has announced that the 2023 payable in 2024 real estate tax statements have been mailed to the taxpayers of Iroquois County. The due date for the first instalment will be July 12, 2024 and the due date for the second installment will be September 12, 2024. After the due dates a 1 ½ percent penalty must be added each month it remains unpaid, according to Illinois State Statutes. Taxpayers must include their tax bill when paying or a $2.00 fee will be charged.
The Treasurer’s Office is open 8:30 to 4:30 Monday through Friday. We will be closed on June 19th to observe Juneteenth and will also be closed on all other Federal holidays as well.
To avoid waiting in line, you may also pay by mail or at any bank in Iroquois County including Iroquois Federal, Commonwealth Credit Union and the First State Bank of Forrest in Onarga. Taxpayers paying in person at the Treasurer’s Office or at the local banks should bring the entire bill if they would like a receipt. Upon payment, the appropriate stub of the bill will be removed and then the date will be stamped on the back of the remaining part of the tax bill. If you mail your payment and wish to have a receipt, you must enclose the entire bill plus a self-addressed stamped envelope.
There is also a tax drop box located on the south side of the building near the 911 center.
Credit/Debit Card payments and E-checks are also an option for paying Real Estate Taxes. To pay online please visit www.iroquoisil.devnetwedge.com. Fees for online payment will be applied at checkout.
Members of any United States Armed Forces Reserve Unit can defer their real estate tax payment until 180 days after they return from active duty. This option is available if you are called to active duty for deployment outside the continental United States and if you are on active duty on the due date of any installment of taxes. Please contact our office to make arrangements.
Remember that a drop box has been installed on the south side of the Administrative Center near the 911 Center so that taxpayers can drop off their payments during non-office hours.
