Treasurer-Collector

It is the purpose of the Stephenson County Treasurer to conduct the duties of the office with professionalism, accountability and integrity. The County Treasurer promotes an atmosphere of cooperation with all county departments, the County Board and private businesses.

***YEAR-END TAX INFORMATION FOR INCOME TAX PREPARATION ***
The County Treasurer's office does not mail out year-end tax documentation.   The information needed for income tax preparation as it relates to property taxes may be found on your tax bill.  Both the amount paid and the parcel number are included on all bills.

You (or your tax professional) may also utilize our online Property Tax Inquiry tool:  STEPHENSON COUNTY PROPERTY TAX INQUIRY 
When using the search tool, less information is best.  For example, list the house number and the first few letters of the street name.  Alternately, enter the last name and first initial.  These search criteria yield better results.  Tax information may be retrieved online dating back to the 2000 tax year for most parcels.



2023, PAYABLE 2024, PROPERTY TAX  INFORMATION WILL BE POSTED IN MAY 2024.


Information below pertains to the 2022, payable 2023, tax year and is maintained until the next year's information is available.
