do you pay them on time by filling out the paperwork or do you wait till they bill you?

which taxes? Local Earned income, or real estate taxes?
I pay the earned income quarterly, otherwise there is a penalty and interest that accrues…

I pay them quarterly, using the forms they give you at the beginning of the year. Frankly I only do that because the wife informs me to…otherwise I’d forget entirely. UPMC doesn’t take it out for me.

I pay my property taxes long before I get the bill, but my local wage taxes usually get procrastinated on.

X2 I pay at the end of the year and the penalty is like 40 bucks. I usually just take the local payment out of my federal return since I have that done before the middle of february. It is funny because they make the penalty all complicated and I decided to just call them and say hey this is what I owe, how much is the penalty and they figure it out and give it to you over the phone. I started doing this after they nabbed me 3 years ago and I sent in my final with the full amount minus the penalty and they said it wouldn’t be accepted till I paid it. I laughed at what the penalty was.

First year at my new house, wife and I totally blew it an missed the quarterlys. Had to pay the 1% penalty and it added up to a lot. We try to keep up with it now. Never got any letters from them or anything so I kind of wonder if I could have gotten away with not adding the penalty in myself. Did they care enough to send me a bill? Maybe I will give it a try this year.

the post office doesnt take out for local, so it is dependent upon you to pay them.
