Any person who has purchased real estate or a business after the October 1, 2022 assessment date and has assumed the payment of taxes that will become due July 2023 or January 2024, should contact the Tax Office if they do not have a copy of the real estate or personal property tax bill.
It is the taxpayer's responsibility to make sure the tax is paid since failure to receive a bill does not invalidate the tax and/or interest; Connecticut State Statute 12-70/12-130.
