News Releases

The City of Saskatoon reminds property owners that their 2024 property tax payment is due this Sunday, June 30, and that City Hall is not open on the weekend. 

There are several property tax payment options available for you:

• Internet Banking: Pay your property tax online through your bank’s internet bill payment option. Please allow up to two business days for payment processing; some banks may take longer.

• Pay your property taxes in person at City Hall by cheque, cash or debit up until 5:00 p.m. on Friday, June 28, 2024. 

• Your 2024 property tax payment may be paid at most financial institutions. Please allow up to two business days for payment processing; some banks may take longer.
   
• City Hall Drop Boxes: Place your property tax payment in one of the two drop boxes located at City Hall outside the main entrance or in the lobby. Cheques only, please; do not deposit cash. City Hall is located at 222-3rd Avenue North in Saskatoon.

• Please note: The Payment Drop Box located outside of the main doors of City Hall will be open on Sunday, June 30, to deposit cheques.
   
• Are you interested in paying your property tax bill in 12 monthly instalments rather than a single annual payment? Consider signing up for the Tax Instalment Payment Plan Service (TIPPS). You can join the TIPPS Program any time.

If you have already mailed in your 2024 property tax payment, you can check your account balance by calling our automated voice response toll free at 1-800-667-9944 or customer service at 306-975-2400.

A late payment penalty of 1.75% compounded per month will be applied to any 2024 property taxes unpaid after June 30, 2024.

For additional information on your property’s current and previous assessed value, market area information, historical tax information, or a detailed breakdown of how the municipal portion of your 2024 property tax is distributed to various civic services, visit saskatoon.ca/taxtool.
