New Barnstable Property Tax Policy:
Bills will be sent out twice a year:
· Beginning of July for August 1 and November
1 deadlines;
· Beginning of January (issues 12/31) for
February and May deadlines.
Bills due in August and November are “preliminary”
or estimated tax bills. This bill is normally
one half of the previous year’s taxes (including
betterments if any).
The bill reflecting the actual tax will be due February
1 and May 1.
Abatement requests can only be filed after the receipt
of this bill (early January). All abatements must
be filed by Feb. 1.
You can choose to pay quarterly or biannually.
If you choose to pay quarterly, your payment is due
NO LATER than:
* 1st Quarter: August 1
* 2nd Quarter: November 1
* 3rd Quarter: February 1
* 4th Quarter: May 1.
If you choose to pay biannually, your 1st and
2nd Quarter bills are due on August 1;
Your 3rd and 4th Quarter bills are due February
1.
Unlike Federal tax, your tax payment is considered
late if it arrives after the due date (post
mark date is irrelevant!)
