Property Taxes Payment Dates Must Be Adhered To/Counties Can Waive Penalties and Interest

A policy document has been prepared by the California Association of County Treasurers/Tax Collectors (CACTTC)outlining that the April 10th 2^nd installment due date for collection of property taxes cannot be moved.  This analysis is due to significant financial obligations for counties in the weeks immediately after April 10^th. However, CACTTC’s position is there is sufficient existing authority to waive penalties and interest for those individuals who cannot pay on/before April 10 due to circumstances associated with the coronavirus (COVID-19).  The policy document is available here.
