With tax bills due Monday, treasurer to hold special office hours Saturday for McHenry County taxpayers

The McHenry County Treasurer’s Office at 2100 N. Seminary Ave. in Woodstock will open from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, June 8, to offer more options for those wishing to pay in person before the first property tax installment is due Monday, June 10.

Taxpayers can pay in the lobby or through one of the office’s four drive-thru lanes. The office accepts checks, cash and debit/credit card payments. The office also will hold the same Saturday hours Sept. 7 before the due date for the second and final installment.

To pay property taxes electronically via e-check, visit treasurer.mchenrycountyil.gov and click “Look Up/Pay Your Tax Bill.” After you find your tax bill, click “Pay Taxes” to begin the process.

To pay by phone, call 877-220-2247 and follow the prompt.

To pay by mail, send the payment along with the payment coupon to McHenry County Collector, P.O. Box 8730, Carol Stream, IL 60197-8730, or use the payment envelope provided. If paying by check, include the property parcel number.

The office recently redesigned the tax bill to make it easier to read and understand, and it has expanded the ways in which people can pay.
