Penalty & Interest
A 5% penalty will be added to any amount outstanding after July 4, 2022, including any unclaimed Home Owner Grant. A second 5% penalty will be applied after July 31, 2022.
Daily Interest Rates are set by the province each quarter and applied directly to your outstanding arrears and delinquent property tax amounts.
The Home Owner Grant reduces the amount of property tax you pay for your principal residence.
Learn more on the Province of British Columbia's Home Owner Grant web page.
A home owner 55 years or over, a widow/widower, persons with disabilities as defined in the Disability Benefits Program Act, or families with children under 18 years of age may be able to defer their taxes on their principal residence through a program whereby the provincial government makes payment on their behalf.
