1. Why haven't I received my statement yet?

The Treasurer's Office may have an incorrect mailing address, a mortgage company may be paying your taxes, or we may be holding the statement for an adjustment that needs to be made prior to mailing (i.e. senior or disability exemptions).

If you have not received a statement by March 31st, please contact the Treasurer's Office at 509-477-4713.

2. Where can I get copies of my tax statement?

There are several ways to get a copy of your tax statement.

They can be found on our website by searching for your parcel using the parcel number or an address. You will find the statement under the notices tab at the top of the page.

You can contact the Treasurer's Office and a current statement can be faxed, emailed or mailed to you.

You can also request a statement online or download the request form. For more information, go to the request forms section.

3. How do I change my name or address?

A name or address change can be taken by phone, mail, or in person. You can also change your name/address online or download the request form.

You may only request a taxpayer change through the Treasurer's Office.

Any request for owner name/address change must be done through the Assessor's Office. A legal document such as a deed, real estate contract, divorce decree, death certificate, or a court document must be provided. Please remember to include your parcel number(s) for any of these requests.

4. I just sold my property. What should I do with the statement?

The tax statement should be forwarded to the purchaser or returned to the Treasurer's Office. If you choose to return the statement, please note the purchaser's name and address so we can contact the new owner.

5. What should I do when the situs or location address of my property is printed incorrectly on the statement?

Contact the Assessor's Office to request a correction of this address.

6. Why did I receive a statement when my taxes are paid by a mortgage company?

Due to a change in state law, beginning in 2020 full tax statements are mailed to all taxpayers, including those whose property taxes are paid through escrow. For those who have their taxes paid through escrow, this may be the first time you have received a full tax statement instead of an informational postcard. This courtesy information is provided to you so that you have a record of the taxes billed to your mortgage company.  Under Washington State Law, it is the taxpayer's responsibility to insure taxes are paid on their property.

If a mortgage company is no longer paying your taxes (the loan has been paid off, the loan has been sold to another company that does not require impounds, etc.), you are responsible for making your payments in a timely manner. Please contact our office or call 509-477-4713 to update your records for this change and to obtain a tax statement.
