I believe there is a portion of the Monthly Operating Report that recaps
taxes owed and delinquencies. UST may be unhappy if you are running behind.

statutory construction, if post-pet taxes are administrative expenses and
they must be paid by the effective date, the fact that the law already
addresses that issue would be dispositive. The only thing I can see that
would militate for payment is accrual of interest or a motion for relief
from stay by the taxing entity, but I havent had that happen yet. Those are
my quick 2 cents.

DIP wants to defer payment of unsecured (personal) property taxes. I see
requirement to file returns - 521(j). I see creditor's right to seek
payment of admin claim - 503. Is there anything which requires a debtor to
TIMELY pay post petition taxes?

It depends on the taxing authoritys patience. Its remedy against late-paid
taxes is to file an administrative claim, or find a reason to dismiss. In a
chapter 13, the IRS tries to dismiss plans where the debtors dont pay
during the plan, but that motion usually requires at least two years of
post-petition pyramiding to be successful, and its premised on plan
prohibitions against incurring more post-petition debt without court
approval. I know of nothing in the code requiring timely payment of taxes,
but the language of the plan may control.
Short answer: how long is the deferral? If its two months, I dontheres a problem. If its two years, watch out.

Is the entire tax period, ie. tax year, post-petition? I think personal property taxes, like real property taxes, are for the fiscal year July 1-June 30.
