Benefits of Online Tax Payments

• Convenience and Reliability - available 24 hours/day and 7 days/week.
• Avoid late payment of taxes by post-dating your payments.
• Less paperwork - no cheques or remittance forms required.

Payment/Filing Processing Time

When using your financial institution's electronic/online tax payment and filing services, please be aware that they have cut-off times for effecting immediate and future dated payments.  This is to ensure your tax return and/or payment is received by the Ministry of Finance on time.

Most financial institutions require payment instructions to be made the day before the payment is due.  Similarly, post-dated payments must be dated at least one day prior to the payment due date.  To avoid late costs, please ensure you process your return and payment within your financial institution's time lines.

If the due date falls on a weekend or holiday, the payment is due on the following banking day.
