Important Notice
Starting December 24, 2025, the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) changed how postmark dates are determined. This update could impact anyone mailing time-sensitive documents like tax payments, bill payments, or legal filings.
New Rule: The postmark will now show the date your envelope is first processed by an automated USPS sorting machine and not simply received at your local post office. This could be later than the day you mailed it.
Example: You place your property tax payment in a blue collection box at 6 PM on January 31, 2026. USPS picks up the mail that night but doesn’t run the mail through an automated USPS sorting machine until sometime later. Under the new rule, the postmark could read February 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th. For the Appraisal District, that means your tax payment is late — even though you mailed it on time.

The District has changed the way the property search tab works. For additional transparency and enhanced features, the property search tab will provide more information than before. Some of the benefits of these changes include current and prior tax statements, and paid receipts for all years. You can also print your statements and receipts for your convenience. All payments are posted to the website in real time. We continue to strive to make our website more convenient for our taxpayers and hopefully this is just one more step toward that direction.
