Payments can be made at an approved bank, credit union or trust company; by telephone or online banking; by mail using cheques; with mortgage payments at your financial institution; and by cheque at the 350 City Hall Sq. W. drop-off box.

The city also offers three pre-authorized payment plans, which property owners can enrol in at any time by visiting the “paying your taxes” page on citywindsor.ca.

Payments through the pre-authorized payment instalment date plan are Feb. 14, March 13, and April 17. For the mid-month plan, the dates are Feb. 14, March 15, April 15, May 15, and June 17, and for the end-of-month plan, they are Feb. 29, March 28, April 30, May 31, and June 28.

Property owners having trouble keeping up with their property tax payments can seek lower-cost financing alternatives available through local financial institutions.

The city offers three streams of assistance with property taxes.

The tax repayment program is available to all property owners; the tax relief program for extreme poverty or sickness is available to single-family residential property owners that meet eligibility criteria and must be applied to by Feb. 29; and the tax deferral program is available to low-income seniors or persons with disabilities who own single-family residential properties and meet eligibility criteria. It also has an application deadline of Feb. 29.

If your property taxes are paid by a mortgage or financial institution, you will receive a tax bill for your records, and no additional action is required.
