2021 Municipal tax bill – The City is postponing the due dates

The City of Pointe-Claire would like to inform you that the due date for the first payment of the municipal taxes, scheduled for February 8, 2021, has been extended to May 26, 2021. The due date for the second payment, scheduled for June 7, has been extended to August 26, 2021. This measure is intended to give residential, commercial and industrial owners a break under the circumstances of the pandemic.

We remind you that tax bills can be paid at a financial institution: either in person, at an ATM or online; by pre-authorized payment; by cheque sent by mail; or in person at the tax counter. The remittance slip and  cheque can also be placed in the reply envelope and dropped off in the box at the City Hall reception desk at any time.

Cheques already sent for tax payment will only be deposited on the dates of the new deadlines. Owners who would prefer to have their cheque deposited on the date indicated on the cheque must make a request by e-mail at taxes@pointe-claire.ca or by telephone at 514-630-1300, ext. 1829. No refunds will be issued for payments that have already been made.

Owners who have signed up for monthly pre-authorized payments will have their first withdrawal made on February 8, as scheduled. Withdrawals will continue to be made on the 8th of every month until January 8, 2022 (or until the balance is paid in full). Due to the deferral, no interest or penalties will be charged on the withdrawals until the first due date.

We also invite you to visit the Online Tax Bills page of the city’s website to sign up for the online service. Once registered, you can view your tax or water bill or statements of account, receive a reminder when deadlines are approaching, and obtain a $5 credit on your next tax bill.

Due to the government measures in place to curb the spread of COVID-19, our City Hall counters are operating with reduced staff. Thank you for your understanding.
