Deductions & credits

Yes, you will claim the $4,000 you paid in Nov 2021 on your 2021 tax return.  If the county applies the refund of $200 to next year's tax bill you will not have to take any action to report the refund.  Should the county actually give you a check for the refund of $200, then you would report that as other income only if you deducted your tax payment of $4,000 as an itemized deduction for 2021.  If you have any questions on this when you file your 2022 tax return post your question for help.
