Treasurer making effort to correct printing errors
Hamilton County property owners should have received their 2022 tax statements over the weekend.
Byer
County Treasurer Susan Byer says there were a couple of errors on the taxes of which property owners should be aware. The amount due on your statement was not affected.
First, the word “Escrowed” was not watermarked on the tax statements of homeowners who escrow their taxes. “If homeowners have any questions as to whether or not their lender is paying the escrow, they should contact their lender directly,” Byer said.
Second, a list of banks that are accepting payments also erroneously listed three banks that are not participating in this year’s program. Property owners can drop off payments at BMO Harris Bank, Community First Bank of Indiana, Farmers Bank, First Farmers Bank, First Merchants Bank, Horizon Bank, Merchants Bank of Indiana, and Star Financial Bank.
Those who would like to pay online can do so at hamiltoncounty.in.gov/taxes. Payments can also be made in person at the Treasurer’s Office with cash or check during normal office hours – 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
“We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause some of our property owners,” Byer added. “We are happy to help clear up any confusion. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions by calling us (317) 776-9620 and select Option 7.”
