Geauga County Treasurer Christopher P. Hitchcock announced this week the first half 2022 real estate tax bill due date has been extended to Feb. 15, 2023.

“Taxpayers deserve to be given as much notice as possible to plan payment of one of the largest bills they receive every year, their real estate tax bill,” Hitchcock said. “As the tax bill mailing depends on numerous factors outside our control, I have already asked the Ohio Department of Taxation and received permission to extend the tax collection due date to Feb. 15, 2023.”

He added, “These days we just aren’t able to assure taxpayers that the tax duplicate will be certified by the state in time for the bills to be printed, sorted, stuffed and sealed in time for mailing the day after Christmas, but we will continue to try to make it happen regardless the obstacles.”

Hitchcock said for those residents who cannot wait to receive their bill in the mail, upon certification, duplicate tax bills will be available on the county website, http://www.geaugatax.com, or by calling or coming to the treasurer’s office on Chardon Square.

Payment may be made in cash, money order, check or credit card (1-855-782-3909) or www.geaugatax.com. There is a convenience fee for using the credit card service.

For those who are unable to make full payment, taxpayers are also reminded there are several payment programs available. For information, call the Geauga County Treasurer’s Office at 440-279-2000.
