Can I join at any time?
You can join the TIPPS program at any time of the year. If you start TIPPS effective January 1 your outstanding taxes for the previous year must be paid in full. If you start at any other time of the year, the pro-rated portion of the current year taxes must be paid. For example, if you join July 1, 50% of your current year taxes must be paid before you can start TIPPS. You must have an account at a financial institute.
