The Williamson County Tax Assessor/Collector’s office reminds property owners that wish to pay their property taxes in 2016 for federal income tax purposes that the office will be closed on Friday December 30, 2016 in observance of the New Year’s holiday.

Tax Assessor Deborah M. Hunt said, “Many people want to pay their property taxes by December 31st so they can include the payment as a deduction in calculating their federal income taxes for that year.” Due to the County office closures, anyone wishing to pay in person and claim the payment on their 2016 federal income taxes are encouraged to come to the office on or before Thursday December 29th. Additionally, because the United States Postal Service is closed January 2nd in observance of New Year's, any payments postmarked on or before January 3rd will be posted as being paid in 2016.

Taxpayers are encouraged to avoid the long lines at the tax office by taking advantage of one of several options:

  • *Payments can be sent by USPS. Mailed payments should be sent to 904 S. Main St., Georgetown, TX, 78626. Taxpayers are encouraged to request from the post office a receipt or certificate of mailing to show proof of delivery.
  • Payments can be made online by going to www.wilco.org/paytaxes and searching for your property. Credit card and e-checks are accepted, but incur additional vendor fees.
  • Payments can be placed in the drop box located to the right of the entrance door at the Georgetown tax office.
  • If you must come to an office, reduce your wait time by almost 90% by going online to make a same day appointment at www.wilco.org/taxoffice/
