Property Tax Deferment Program

All deferment applications (new or renewal) must be completed online through the Province of BC website.

To be eligible to defer, property tax accounts must be up to date and not have any amount owing from a previous year.

Only current taxes can be owing at the time of the application.

To avoid penalty, the following must be completed by the due date:

• Apply at gov.bc.ca/propertytaxdeferment.
• Claim your home owner grant at gov.bc.ca/homeownergrant.
• Pay user fees, if applicable (water, sewer and garbage).

To find your current charges, refer to your property tax statement. There are Provincial qualifications that homeowners must meet in order for the Province to approve the deferment application; these are are outlined on the Province’s website.
