Next Tax Deadline?

Most residents do not need a long government explanation. They need to know where to pay, what is due, when the payment must arrive, and who to call if the bill looks wrong. The Tax Collector collects money owed for municipal, county and school taxes, and the office also handles sewer utility billing through the online payment system.

The most important thing to understand is the difference between collection and assessment. The Tax Collector collects the bill. The Tax Assessor determines assessed value. The Union County Board of Taxation certifies the tax rate. If your question is “How do I pay?” use the Tax Collector. If your question is “Why is my value or exemption wrong?” you may need the Assessor or a state/property tax relief program.
Use Tax Collector for payment
Pay property taxes, pay sewer bills, view current bill, calculate interest, ask about delinquent payments, request payment status, and handle tax sale-related collection issues.
Use Tax Assessor for value
Assessment value, property classification, ownership record issues, property characteristics and certain deduction/exemption questions often start outside the payment office.
Use state programs for relief
Senior Freeze, ANCHOR-style property tax relief, deductions and rebate programs may require state or separate application steps, not just a Tax Collector call.
Micro-level rule
If you are trying to pay, prove payment, calculate interest or avoid tax sale, start with the Tax Office. If you are trying to lower the tax amount by changing value, deduction or exemption status, ask which office owns that record before the due date gets close.
How to Pay Union Township Property Taxes and Sewer Bills Online
Use the official WIPP payment portal linked from the Township of Union Tax Office page. The same portal is used for paying and viewing taxes and sewer utility bills.
Do not treat tax payment like a normal checkout page. A tax account can include current taxes, sewer utility amounts, interest, a prior balance, a grace-period issue, tax sale status or a mortgage-company payment. Your first step is to verify the correct account before submitting payment.
Open the official WIPP portal
Use the WIPP portal linked directly from the Township of Union Tax Office page. The official payment link is wipp.edmundsassoc.com/Wipp/?wippid=2019.
Search the correct account
Search by block/lot, property location, owner name or the search method available in the portal. Match the property address and owner before paying.
Check whether it is tax or sewer
The Tax Office page links both property taxes and sewer utility bills. Make sure you are paying the correct bill type, year and quarter.
Review interest before payment
The official page allows residents to view current bills and calculate interest. If payment is after the grace period, confirm the amount before paying.
Save confirmation and receipt proof
Download, print or screenshot the confirmation page showing property, bill type, quarter, amount, date and confirmation number. Keep proof until the account shows paid.

Open Tax Office PageHow to View a Union Township Tax Bill, Sewer Bill and Interest Amount
The official tax portal helps residents view taxes and sewer bills, view the current tax bill and calculate interest. Use it before paying late or sending a check.
Many payment mistakes happen because the resident is looking at the wrong quarter, wrong bill type, wrong account, or wrong owner record. Slow down before payment and confirm that the record matches your property.
Match these identity details
- Property location
- Owner name
- Block and lot if available
- Tax year
- Bill type: tax or sewer
Check money details
- Quarter due
- Base amount
- Interest after grace period
- Prior balance, if any
- Payment confirmation after checkout
Late-payment warning
The official Tax Office page states New Jersey does not permit postmarks as proof of payment. A mailed payment is not credited just because it was postmarked before the deadline. The payment must be physically received by the Tax Office by the proper cutoff.
Union Township Tax Collector Phone Number, Email, Address and Same-Day Payment Cutoff
The Township of Union Tax Office is located at Town Hall, 1976 Morris Ave., Union, NJ 07083.

Property tax and sewer collection contact
Town Hall Payment Details
Confirm before visiting or dropping payment
Before visiting or mailing
Call the Tax Office if your account is delinquent, in tax sale, tied to sewer utility, paid by mortgage escrow, missing a bill, or showing interest you do not understand. If you need same-day credit, make sure payment reaches the Tax Office before the 4:30 PM cutoff.
Union Township Property Tax Due Dates and 10-Day Grace Period
Township of Union property taxes are due February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1. The Township permits a 10-day grace period.
The grace period is helpful, but it is not a reason to wait. The key detail is receipt, not postmark. The State of New Jersey does not allow postmarks as proof of payment, so payment must physically be in the Tax Office when it closes at 4:30 PM to be credited that day.
February 1
First quarter property tax due date. Use January to confirm escrow, address and bill details before the due date.
May 1
Second quarter due date. If your mortgage company pays taxes, check the WIPP portal before the grace period ends.
August 1
Third quarter due date. New annual bills can create confusion, so confirm the correct quarter before paying.
November 1
Fourth quarter due date. Do not wait until year-end if your account has interest, escrow or sewer balance issues.
How the grace period works
The Township permits a 10-day grace period, but interest can be calculated back to the original due date after the grace period. If the last day of grace is close, pay online or confirm receipt directly rather than relying on mail timing.
No postmark rule
New Jersey does not permit postmarks as proof of payment for this purpose. A check mailed before the deadline can still be late if the Tax Office receives it after the accepted period. This is one of the most important user-intent points for residents who pay by mail.
Union Township Tax Payment Options: Online, Drop Box, Mail and In-Person
The Township encourages residents to use the tax drop-off box at Town Hall’s front door facing Morris Ave. The drop box is open 24/7, but cash should not be placed in the box.
Online payment
Use the official WIPP portal to pay and view taxes and sewer bills. Save confirmation after submitting payment.
Drop box
The 24-hour drop box is on the Town Hall front door facing Morris Ave. Do not place cash in the drop box.
Mail payment
Mail early enough for the payment to be received. Postmark is not proof of on-time payment under the Township notice.
Same-day credit reminder
To be credited the same business day, payments must be received by the Tax Office by 4:30 PM. Drop box payments after the business-day cutoff may not receive same-day credit.
Cash safety warning
The official Tax Office page specifically says not to put cash in the drop box. Use check, money order, online payment or an officially accepted method instead.
What to Do if Your Mortgage Company Should Pay Union Township Taxes
Mortgage escrow does not automatically prove the Township received payment. It only means your servicer is supposed to send the tax payment.
Check your mortgage escrow activity
Look for an actual property tax disbursement, not just a monthly escrow charge. A monthly escrow line does not prove the Tax Office has posted payment.
Search the WIPP account
Check the Union Township tax account before the grace period ends. If it still shows unpaid, contact your mortgage servicer immediately.
Save proof from both sides
Keep lender confirmation, county/township account status, screenshots, representative names and dates. This matters if interest or tax sale notices appear.
Hard truth for homeowners
Even if your mortgage company made the mistake, the unpaid tax account belongs to the property. Verify posting before the grace period ends and keep proof if someone else was supposed to pay.
Union Township Property Tax Deductions, Senior Freeze and Relief Programs
The Township’s official Tax Deduction Programs page lists municipal deduction programs and state property tax relief programs. These are not the same as simply paying the tax bill.
Veteran and widow deduction
The Township lists a veteran and widow of veteran property tax deduction among municipal deduction programs.
Senior, disabled and surviving spouse deduction
Senior citizen, disabled and surviving spouse property tax deduction information is listed on the official deduction page.
100% disabled veteran exemption
The Township lists a 100% disabled veteran or surviving spouse property tax exemption category.
State relief program reminder
The Township page also references state property tax relief programs, including the Senior Freeze/property tax reimbursement concept. Eligibility can involve age, disability, residence history, income limits and state application rules. Use official state and Township links before assuming you qualify.
Payment deadline still matters
A deduction, rebate or relief application does not automatically stop quarterly tax due dates. Ask the Tax Office or appropriate program office what must be paid while a relief application is pending.
Union Township Delinquent Taxes, Interest and Tax Sale Help
The Tax Collector is required to follow New Jersey statutes for billing, due dates, delinquent interest, reporting and tax sale procedures. The office does not have authority to reduce a tax or waive interest charges.
This is where many residents become frustrated. If a payment is late after the grace period, the Tax Collector may be required to calculate interest under state rules. If the account continues unpaid, it can move toward tax sale procedures. The Tax Collector is not simply choosing to charge interest; the office must follow statutory collection rules.
Interest after grace period
If payment is received after the permitted grace period, interest can apply. Use the online system to calculate interest or call the office before paying.
Tax sale risk
Unpaid municipal charges can move toward tax sale. If you receive a notice, contact the Tax Office quickly and confirm the full amount due.
No waiver authority
The official page states the Tax Collector has no statutory authority to reduce a tax or waive interest charges.
Identify the quarter and bill type
Before calling, know whether the issue is property tax, sewer utility, interest, prior balance or tax sale-related notice.
Use the portal to calculate interest
The official page links the WIPP portal for viewing the current tax bill and calculating interest. Check the amount before sending payment.
Call if tax sale language appears
If the notice mentions tax sale, lien or certified funds, call the Tax Office before mailing a regular check.
