Delinquent Taxes

  • Connecticut State Statutes 12-145 and 12-146 govern delinquent tax collection. Interest on delinquent taxes accrues at the rate of 1.5% per month, starting at the original due date. Tax collectors do not have authority to waive interest for any reason.
  • All delinquent motor vehicle bills must be paid by cash, money order or certified bank check to obtain an immediate DMV release for registration.
  • Credit card payments are processed by Point & Pay and can be made online. An additional fee applies. By state law, oldest bills must be paid first.
  • Delinquent taxes may be, but not limited to, collection proceedings such as tax sales, foreclosure, State Marshal or collection agency.
  • See Tax Collector Office Policies for a detailed collection enforcement timeline. The tax office reserves the right to modify the process to utilize other means authorized under Connecticut General Statutes.
  • Failure to receive a bill does not relieve or excuse the obligation of the bill due. Please mail checks payable to: Tax Collector, Town of East Windsor, 11 Rye Street, Broad Brook, CT 06016.
