Payment Advances
The Pratt County treasurer has had numerous requests for advance payments on property taxes. In order to provide such a service, the Pratt County treasurer has formally instituted a program whereby any taxpayer may make monthly payments to a tax escrow account.
Escrow Payment Program
This program is designed for any taxpayer to make 12 monthly payments in order to spread his/her tax liability throughout the year, as opposed to either a half or full payment in late December. Monthly payments will be set by using an estimate on the previous year's taxes.
Outstanding Balance
Should the escrow account come up short, the taxpayer would be notified in November of any outstanding balance, thereby allowing the taxpayer sufficient time to pay the balance by the mandated due date. Payments may be made by mail, in person, with automatic bank withdrawal, or by payroll deduction (if offered by your employer). The preferred method of payment is automatic withdrawal.
To initiate the automatic withdrawal process, the taxpayer needs to complete the Automatic Withdrawal Authorization Form.
