you should honestly just email or call the tax department, they responded to me by email within 24 hours last time i needed something...

the original deadline was indeed Nov 1 but because of the disaster that is our local executive govt the budget was late and therefore the tax bills were late and therefore the due date was changed to nov 28

i suspect either the systems were not properly updated and interest is still being calculated from nov 1 by mistake or whatever silly rule they used to change the deadline from nov 1 to nov 28 purposely didn't forgive interest

I did email them. Valerie Forester responded and said that the system is correct, that the due date was November 28th, but because the payment wasn't received by then, the interest accrual date reverted back to November 1st. I don't understand how anyone was supposed to know that, and given that their website expressly states that there's a 10 day grace period on payment, this seems a little predatory.
