1. When is my property tax payment due?

Property tax bills are mailed out by the Town or Village treasurer the middle of December.

Payment of the first installment of taxes or payment in full is due to the Town or Village treasurer by January 31.

Payment of the second installment of taxes is due to the County treasurer by July 31.

Missing a due date for payment of taxes results in the unpaid tax becoming delinquent and subject to interest of 1 percent per month from February 1 until paid.

Delinquent property taxes are collected by the County treasurer.

2. Do I qualify to receive the Lottery and Gaming Credit?

The lottery and gaming credit is direct property tax relief to qualifying tax-payers in the form of a credit on their property tax bill. You may claim a lottery and gaming credit if, on January 1, you are a Wisconsin resident and you are a recorded owner of the property and the property is your primary residence.

You can have only one primary residence. Rental or other properties do not qualify for lottery credit.

To apply for the Lottery and Gaming Credit contact the Burnett County Treasurer's Office at 715-349-2187.
