Welcome to Jackson Townships Online Tax Account Lookup and Payment Section. Please read the following information carefully as it will explain the fees associated with paying your taxes online as well as information pertaining to tax account lookup.

Online Tax Payment Convenience Fees

Please be advised that E-Check and Credit/Debit card payments can only be made via the internet and that there are convenience fees that will be charged to the user for each transaction. *Please note that the fee for using a debit card is the same fee as using a credit card. If you have the funds in your checking account, the fee for using an e-check is a flat $1.95 (Increase to $1.95 Effective Nov 15, 2020) per transaction instead of the 2.95% of the transaction amount incurred for credit/debit cards.

Fees - Per Transaction

  • E-Check (Checking Account) - $1.95 Flat Fee (Increase to $1.95 Effective Nov 15, 2020) 
  • Credit or Debit Card - 2.95% of the Transaction Amount
    For Example: a $1,500 Payment Would Incur a $$44.25 Fee

Note: Convenience fees are not refundable. Convenience fees are retained by the service provider and are not paid to, or shared with, Jackson Township.

Important
**If paying by E-Check, please use all the digits for the routing and account numbers that appear on an actual check. Do not use a deposit slip. Missing or transposed numbers will cause the E-Check to be returned and could be subject to interest or additional fees.**

Partial Payments

Partial payments are not permitted by State Statute without a formal installment plan approved by the Governing body. These arrangements are normally reserved for seriously delinquent accounts that are subject to tax sale. Payments must be made in full quarterly increments along with all the interest due, if any. Payments received less than the quarterly amount, without prior arrangements, may have future payments blocked.

Interest

The interest listed on delinquent amounts is calculated to today’s date. Interest must be paid in full and will be deducted first before any monies are applied to taxes. Once interest is deducted, monies will be applied to the oldest taxes first. Please contact our office to obtain interest calculations for a future date.

Tax Account Lookup Disclaimer

Tax account look up is for informational purposes only and does not constitute a municipal tax search. Account information is subject to updates, corrections and reversals. Jackson Township is not responsible for erroneous interpretation of the records or for changes made after the look up. 

Assessment Values

The Assessment values that appear on the Tax Account lookup section are from the last update to the Municipal Assessors records, which only occurs twice a year, and may not reflect the Assessed value on the Assessors records. Please keep in mind that the Assessors records are always one year ahead of the current year.

Municipal & Third Party Tax Liens

Municipal and Third Party tax liens cannot be paid online. All redemptions of liens must be made through the tax office with certified funds, such as certified check, money order or cash. Redemption figures must be requested in advance and may take 3 or more business days to be provided. 

Note: Online tax accounts with 3rd party tax liens may report taxes as paid, however the taxes may have been paid by the lien-holder and are still due as part of the 3rd party lien. Municipal liens may also report taxes as paid, however the taxes may only have been transferred to the lien and are still due as part of the Municipal lien.

Properties in Bankruptcy

Tax accounts that have an open balance at the time of the bankruptcy filing may have those balances transferred to a special charges account. Any taxes transferred to a special charges account will appear paid on the regular tax account, but will be still due and owing under special charges. Properties in bankruptcy cannot be paid online.

Special Charges Accounts

Special Charges accounts contain balances that are due in addition to the regular account. Please contact this office at 732-928-1200 to obtain further information on accounts that are noted as having special charges.

Refunds

Once taxes are paid online, refunds will not be permitted. If monies paid result in an overpayment of taxes, Please contact this office for assistance. Please make sure you are paying on the correct account prior to making payment
