Garrett County does not allow prepayments; however, we do allow overpayments, and any overpayment will sit as a credit on the customer’s account and be applied to the subsequent year’s tax bill. Refunds will not be issued for those intentionally overpaying.  We do not accrue or pay interest on credit balances.

 

Overpayments can only be made in person at the Collections Office or by mail.

Please check with your financial advisor concerning the possible tax implications of making an overpayment.
