Section 357 or 358 Application - Tax Adjustment
Filing for a Property Tax Adjustment
In some circumstances, you may be eligible to apply for a property tax refund, cancellation or reduction with your municipality.
Applications can be made for the current taxation year, and up to two years prior. Applications made for years past the previous two will not be considered.
Some examples of eligible scenarios include the following:
- Your property has become unusable or unliveable due to damage or natural disaster (or fire).
- Your property has changed its primary use (for example, from a residential property to a place of worship).
- There was an error in the property assessment, resulting in incorrect tax rate being applied.
- There was an error in your property’s classification, resulting in incorrect tax rate being applied.
In order to file an application for a property tax adjustment, you must be one of the following:
- the property owner
- the spouse of the owner
- the tenant, occupant or their spouse
- a person in possession of the land
