Plans |

| Payment
plans are available for tax accounts with overdue or delinquent property
taxes. These plans are designed to pay the outstanding debt before
further taxes are billed and the debt becomes too large. To discuss
payment plan details, contact the Taxation Revenue Collections Branch
at 250 387-0613 in Victoria or the Government Agents
office in your area. Taxpayers on payment plans are subject to penalties,
interest and fees prescribed by legislative deadlines. |

| Prepayments |
| |
| Monthly
prepayments of current year taxes may be made anytime during January
1 to May 15. Prepayments must be a minimum of $50, and will accrue
monthly credit interest from the time of the prepayment date until
June 30 at a rate of 3% below the prime lending rate available to
the province. Prepayments will only be applied against current year
taxes. If delinquent taxes remain outstanding, the prepayment will
be applied to reduce the balance and no prepayment interest will be
applied. |
