2006 New York Code - Redemption, Generally.

 
    §   1110.  Redemption,  generally.  1.  Real  property  subject  to  a
  delinquent tax lien may be redeemed by payment to the enforcing officer,
  on or before the expiration of the redemption period, of the  amount  of
  the  delinquent  tax  lien or liens, including all charges authorized by
  law. If  the  enforcing  officer  is  not  authorized  to  receive  such
  payments,  such  payment  shall  be  made  to  the  official  who  is so
  authorized.
    2.  The redemption period shall expire  two  years  after  lien  date,
  except  that  a  tax  district  may  increase  the redemption period for
  residential or farm property in the manner provided  by  section  eleven
  hundred  eleven  of  this article. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
  notice published pursuant to section eleven hundred twenty-four of  this
  article  specifies  a  later  date  for the expiration of the redemption
  period, the redemption period shall expire on the date so specified.
    3.  If a parcel is redeemed which has  been  included  on  a  list  of
  delinquent  taxes that has been filed pursuant to section eleven hundred
  twenty-two of this article, the enforcing officer shall,  upon  request,
  issue  a certificate of redemption.  Upon the filing of such certificate
  with the county clerk, the county clerk shall enter  on  such  list  the
  word  "redeemed"  and the date of the filing opposite the description of
  such parcel on the list of delinquent taxes. Such notation shall operate
  to cancel the notice of pendency with respect to such parcel.
