2024 Property Tax Notices; City to begin mail-out on May 8
Starting Wednesday, May 8, 2024, the City of Saskatoon will begin the mail-out of almost 100,000 property tax notices. Property owners should expect their 2024 Property Tax Notice to arrive over the next coming weeks. If you do not receive your tax notice by May 31, 2024, please call 306-975-2400.
- Your tax notice will be accompanied by a 2024 Property Tax Notice Guide.
- There are various payment options available including paying your property tax bill over 12 months in equal instalments rather than a single annual payment through the Tax Instalment Payment Plan Service (TIPPS). Join the TIPPS program anytime.
- Already on TIPPS? Your TIPPS amount showing on your 2024 Property Tax notice is for information only.
- You will not incur late payment penalties if you pay your full 2024 Property Tax amount due on or before the Sunday, June 30, 2024, payment deadline. Non-receipt of your property tax notice does not exempt late-payment penalties.
- Current Property Tax: For property tax levied in the current year that remains outstanding beyond the June 30 payment deadline, the late payment penalty is 1.75% per month.
- Property Tax in Arrears: For Property Tax Arrears, where a property tax balance remains outstanding beyond December 31 of the year the property tax was levied in, the late payment penalty is 2.25% per month. All late payment penalties are added to the tax account, and compound monthly.
Provincial legislation requires the City of Saskatoon to collect property tax on behalf of three taxing authorities. The total property tax collected in 2024 will be distributed as follows:
- 60% for the City of Saskatoon to support municipal services and infrastructure relied on every day including fire and police protection, transit, road maintenance, utility services, waste disposal, parks, recreation and more;
- 34% is billed, collected and remitted on behalf of the province for education as legislated; and
- 6% to support the Saskatoon Public Library.
