Our Mission
The Treasurer’s Office collects property taxes for the County of Curry, City of Clovis, the State of New Mexico, and other taxing agencies within Curry County.
The Mission of the Curry County Treasurer’s Office is to provide prompt, professional and courteous service to all the citizens of Curry County as well as all persons and agencies involved with County government. This office assists the public and Curry County departments with honesty and accountability when accepting tax payments and answering question pertaining to the collection, distribution and improvements required by law for the office of the Curry County Treasurer.
Tax bills are mailed on or before November 1 of each year. At least one-half of the current year taxes must be paid by December 10 to avoid interest and penalty charges. All delinquent payments are due at this time as well. The second-half payment becomes due on April 10 and must be paid by May 10 to avoid additional charges.
Property Taxes may be paid by mail, on-line by clicking on the “Property Tax Payment” link on the Homepage; in person at the Treasurer’s Office located at 417 Gidding Street, Suite 150 in Clovis (Enter building from Axtell Street); and through your mortgage company.
Delinquent notices are mailed to property owners for any tax bill 30 or more days delinquent as of May 10th of each year. This is a courtesy to help prevent current-year, overlooked payments from accruing penalty and interest. The notice will also stress that if the any taxes, penalty and interest charges are delinquent more than three years, the property may be transferred to the State of New Mexico, charged a one-time fee, and then sold at public auction.
