The Seniors Property Tax Deferral Program allows you to defer all, or part, of your residential property taxes through a low-interest home equity loan with the Government of Alberta. The program will pay the property taxes to your municipality on your behalf. You repay the loan, with interest, when you sell your home, are no longer eligible for the loan, or sooner if you choose. You may apply for a loan on your primary residence if you are age 65 or older, listed as the registered owner, a Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada, an Alberta resident and you must have a minimum of 25% equity in your residence. You can apply to the program at any time but are encouraged to apply at least 30 days before the residential property tax deadline. This will allow the program enough time to process your application, forward payment to your municipality and avoid penalties. The loan and interest can be repaid at any time without penalties. Monthly repayments are not required.

Many property owners find it beneficial to pay their taxes through the Pre-Authorized Tax Payment Plan.
 The benefits include:
  • Enhanced convenience as monthly payments are automatically withdrawn from your bank account on the last banking day of each month.
  • Taxes left owing after July 15th will not be subject to penalty provided that your account remains in good standing.
  • No need to enroll annually as you remain on the plan until you give notice of cancellation.
The monthly withdrawals begin in January so property owners are encouraged to enroll into the plan before December 15th. The Town will accept enrollment into the plan up to April 15th of the following year provided that a pro-rated portion of the taxes are paid in advance. Forms are available at the Town office.
To enroll in the pre-authorized payment plan, please complete our form available below.

If you are enrolled in the pre-authorized tax payment plan and are considering selling your property or changing bank accounts, please ensure that you inform our Tax Department by the 10th of the month so that the change can take effect before the next withdrawal date.
Failure to notify the Town may result in additional withdrawals and/or NSF fees being charged.
You may complete the Change of Banking form and email it to taxes@vermilion.ca or call 780-581-2417 for more information.
