Statewide schedule — read this before you rely on it
Counties follow the statutory May 15 and October 15 dates; only a statement postmarked after April 25 pushes the first-half deadline 21 days. Most counties in this state follow these dates.
A 2% homestead or 4% nonhomestead penalty attaches the day after the due date and grows monthly to caps of 8% and 12%.
The county sends a single property tax statement covering both halves after the levy is certified, and it carries the May and October coupons.
