A CREDIT VEHICLE will appear if the plates were transferred from the original vehicle to the new vehicle. All billed taxes on the credit vehicle must be paid in full.
If you have CANCELED your vehicle license plate and NO LONGER OWN the vehicle, kindly notify the ASSESSOR 203-783-3215. The Assessor will require documented proof and determine if your vehicle is eligible for reassessment. Then, the Tax Collector will recalculate your bill based on the new assessment. The bill is STILL DUE by February 1, 2023. (or you can pay your original bill, and if you are eligible for an adjustment at a later date, then you could be eligible for a refund).
