c. If the mortgagor makes a tax payment and notifies the mortgagee or servicing organization pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2) of subsection b. of this section, the mortgagee or its servicing organization, upon receipt of the notice and a copy of the paid tax bill, shall credit the mortgagor's mortgage escrow account in an amount equal to the interest paid by the mortgagor and provide the mortgagor a notice to that effect.
