*School tax collection ended on November 1,2021.

The County will still accept payment including the 2% late fee up until November 30, 2021.

Checks should be made out to the “D.C. Commissioner of Finance” and mailed to :

Dutchess County Commissioner of Finance
22 Market Street
Poughkeepsie, New York, 12601

After that period, unpaid school taxes are then re-levied with additional fees onto your property tax bill which normally comes out in January and will appear on a separate line as part of that bill.

Thank you for your time and cooperation.
