I have a delinquent tax bill, can you adjust it?

Connecticut General Statutes state that a bill can be prorated up to 3 years after it is due.  Documentation must be provided proving that the vehicle was sold, transferred, junked or totaled during the time that the bill covers.  If it is past the 3rd year, then documentation would need to show that the vehicle was disposed of prior to October 1 of the grand list the bill covers.  If no supporting documentation can be provided, then the bill is due and payable as is.  Examples of acceptable proof can be found by clicking https://www.essexct.gov/assessor/pages/motor-vehicle-tax-bill-changes.
