During the collection cycles of July and January, additional time is needed to process the large volume of payments. As a result, the webpage may show interest until payments are posted. If your payment was postmarked or received on time, you do not incur interest for the additional processing time. Do not stop payment on checks until you have verified with the tax office that your check was not received.
