NYC Department of Finance (DOF) is responsible for administering the tax revenue laws of the city fairly, efficiently, and transparently to instill public confidence and encourage compliance while providing exceptional customer service.

DOF’s Customer Operations Division has oversight of the Department of Finance Business Centers, City Register’s Office, and the Land Records, Adjudication, and Collections divisions. Customer Operations is charged with the processing of tax payments, parking violations payments, and all other charges collected by DOF. The division is also responsible for recording property transfers, adjudicating parking and camera violations, and managing the full life cycle of the department’s enforcement activities related to unpaid business and excise taxes, parking fines, and Environmental Control Board summonses.

The Adjudication Division is responsible for conducting hearings on all parking and camera violations issued in New York City. It hosts in-person hearings in the Business Centers and conducts hearings by mail, web, and mobile app. In addition, the judges hear appeals of parking ticket determinations, and a special unit for Commercial Adjudications conducts hearings and appeals on tickets issued to commercial vehicles.
