It is necessary, for the local Counties, to flag all T/W’s that you want to keep locally on a payment plan hold. What this means is that the T/W will stay with the County for a full year for collection and after a year IDOR will recall the T/W. This is done by:

• Open up the Tax Warrant page
• Locate the Warrant.
• Click the button on the bottom of the screen labeled “Payment Plan”. This will flag the Tax Warrant for IDOR that you have requested to keep this T/W for a full year and collect regular installments from the Tax Payer. Normally T/W are kept by the Counties for 120 days before they are automatically Recalled by IDOR for collections processing. (The warrants that are recalled by IDOR will generally be forwarded to “Premier Collections Agency” for them to follow up.
• T/W number sent to IDOR requesting a Payment Plan hold be placed on this warrant.

Note: IDOR may refuse your request to put a Tax Warrant on a Payment Plan for various reasons:

• Tax Payer is on a Payment Plan hold with the State already
• Tax Payer is in foreclosure
