November is the time for creating new Tax Statements for the next tax year. Before starting the process, the levies should have been entered and verified with the Assessor. Once that is complete, contact MIPS staff to assist in importing the statements from the Assessor's vendor. We will help in getting the files imported, and help with verifying totals. Once the statements have been imported, they can either be printed by the county or printed by MIPS.
Drainage billing is a little bit different from other tax types. Drainage gets rolled forward from the previous tax year and modified accordingly. This can be done by selecting the Edit Drainage Billing option from the Billing menu after MIPS staff has rolled the drainage records forward. Once a record has been selected by clicking the Find button, clicking Edit in the tool bar will allow for changes to be made to the statement.
Once all the drainage records have been modified appropriately, MIPS will assist in moving them to the permanent file, and then they can be printed.
