Your second Estimate of the year will be issued in June and will itemize your anticipated expenses for the second half of the year, from September 1st through March 31st. Your mid-year invoice amount will be based on these expenses while also taking into consideration any differences between the information in your April Estimate and your actual account activity over the past two months.
