Paying School Taxes

Due Dates

School property taxes are due Oct. 31 each year. School taxes will be collected without penalty from Sept. 1- 30. A 2% penalty will be added to payments received from Oct. 1-31. No payments are accepted after Oct. 31. Any amounts unpaid at that time will be turned over to the appropriate county.

Payment Methods

Pay by mail

Payments that are mailed must be postmarked no later than October 31. Checks should be made payable to OESJ. Send your check or money order with remittance stub to:
Tax Processing Unit
OESJ CSD
PO Box 12845

Albany, NY 12212-2845

Pay online (credit/debit/e-check)

Taxes can be paid by credit/debit card (2-day processing).  Residents whose school tax bills are paid via escrow accounts should not use this service as the amount due will be deducted from their escrow accounts during the month of September, as in years past. Residents who choose to use the online bill pay service should note that the company that provides the service charges a fee of 2.35% with a  $2.00 minimum or $.50 for an e-check.
