The Will County Treasurer’s Office charges a fee for partial tax payments. This article explains those fees as well as how you can avoid them.
Our office will charge you a $2 re-billing fee for every partial payment. Partial payments made after due dates also incur a state-imposed 1.5% monthly interest penalty on unpaid balances. So, for example, if you make three partial payments, you will pay the re-billing fee plus the 1.5% interest fee three separate times.
You can make partial payments using your Discover Card by phone, in our office, or by mail. Discover Card charges a graduated fee that is capped at $38. You also will pay the re-billing and interest fee.
You cannot make a partial tax payment online or at participating Deputy Collector.
For a complete list of fees, please review the 2011 Fee Schedule.
