The first installment of Johnson County property and mobile home taxes are due on Sept. 30, 2024. Payments must be delivered to the Treasurer’s Office, paid online or postmarked by Sept. 30 to avoid a 1.5% monthly penalty that will begin Oct. 1.

In-person payments must be made at the Treasurer’s Office, located on the first floor of the Johnson County Administration Building, 913 S. Dubuque St. in Iowa City. Business hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Treasurer’s Office will be closed Monday, Sept. 2 in observance of the Labor Day holiday.

If paying by mail, the stub portion of the tax statement must be submitted with the payment. Payments must be mailed to the Johnson County Treasurer, PO Box 2420, Iowa City, IA 52244-2420. Payments postmarked by Sept. 30 will be considered paid on time and no interest will be charged. The U.S. Postal Service postmark is the only date recognized for date of mailing. The date written on a check, or a business metered date cannot be accepted as proof of the mailing date. Residents who would like a receipt must include a self-addressed stamped envelope with their payment.

County Treasurers collect property taxes on behalf of all jurisdictions in the county and then distribute the taxes collected to the other jurisdictions, including the property owner’s city of residence, school district and other taxing bodies in the county.
