This tax is a three year personal income tax as a result of the passage of Measure 26-48 in May 2003. The tax was effective January 1, 2003. The tax is 1.25 percent of Oregon taxable income, with a few exceptions listed in the tax instruction booklet. Multnomah County residents must file a county tax return and pay by April 15 each year.

2003 information.
Please note--no payment plan option for
2004: The County offered a payment plan for the initial
2003 tax year for those taxpayers who were unable to fully pay their
2003 tax obligation. Payment plans are expensive to administer,
reducing money and resources available for county schools and vital
services that voters supported.
If you have a special situation of extreme financial
hardship, you should contact the ITAX help desk at (503) 988-4829
prior to April 17, 2006 . You should be prepared to discuss
your current financial situation in detail.
It is voluntary for employers to offer withholding of this tax. If your employer offers withholding of this tax, you must sign an authorization form first. Ask your employer’s payroll representative for more information.
