Important Notice Regarding Mailed Property Tax Payments and USPS Postmarks

Taxpayers who choose to mail their property tax payments should be aware of recent changes in United States Postal Service (USPS) postmark practices that may affect how payment timeliness is determined.

The Impact of Postmark Practices:

Under updated USPS policy, the date printed on a postmark usually reflects when the mail piece is first processed by USPS sorting machinery. This date is not necessarily the day the payment was placed in a mailbox or dropped off at a post office. This processing can occur one or more days after drop-off, particularly during periods of high mail volume.

Protecting Your Payment Timeliness
Because Ohio law relies on the postmark date to determine whether a mailed payment is timely, taxpayers mailing payments close to a due date are strongly encouraged to:

Allow additional mailing time.

Inquire at your local post office about postmark procedures and processing timelines.

Request an in-person hand-stamped postmark at the post office counter.

Use an alternative payment method to ensure timely receipt.

Or....pay in person at our office, any branch of First Federal Savings & Loan, or online at https://ontrac.lickingcounty.gov/

We anticipate that property tax bills will be in mailboxes the 3rd week of January.

I'm pretty excited to announce this to property owners across Licking County. While NONE of us like paying taxes, we are trying to make it a little more convenient. Tax amounts are available online now. However, tax bills won't be mailed until later this month with a mid February due date. For me, paying online is the most convenient. If you like to hand deliver your check, you now have a lot more locations where you can do that. Please spread the word. Thank you.

Thank you!
