Effective immediately, the County has implemented a streamlined electronic payment process for Current Secured, Defaulted Secured, Unsecured, and Supplemental tax bills involving 15 or more parcels.

EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer) is now the standard and required method for submitting these title company property tax payments. Title companies submitting payments that meet these criteria are expected to use the EFT process moving forward. Individual checks should not be submitted for these payments.

The EFT process allows a list of PINs to be uploaded directly into the system. The system will verify the tax amounts due and calculate the total payment amount. Once the file has been submitted, the full payment amount must be wired to the County’s U.S. Bank account. Payments for all submitted PINs should post within 2–3 business days.

This process is being implemented to eliminate the need to issue and manually process thousands of individual checks. Moving to EFT will:

• Reduce payment handling and processing costs for both title companies and the County.

• Expedite the posting of tax payments.

• Reduce errors associated with manual check processing.

• Provide a more efficient and consistent payment process for large-volume tax payments.
