To participate in the TIPP program:

  1. Complete the TIPP Application Form
  2. Return the form and your void cheque, and payment (to get your tax account up to date) to City Hall. There is no application cost to sign up. For the first year, your total tax amount will be split over the remaining months of the year (rather than paying a lump sum to catch up to the current month). The following January, you will have your payments split over 12 months.
  3. The first payment will be withdrawn from your account on the 15th of the following month.
  4. Payments will continue to be withdrawn unless you submit a TIPP Termination Form
  5. Payments will be automatically adjusted each year (in July and January) to account for any changes in the tax rate. See the 'Calculations' tab to learn more. 

Note: If your home was a new build and was completed in the current calendar year, please call the Tax Department at (403) 207-7057 prior to signing up for TIPPs.
