The  budget process allows City Council and Edmontonians to identify where the money is needed most and helps determine the budget to meet those needs. As part of this process, the City considers where the money to cover municipal programs and services comes from. One of the revenue sources for any municipality in Canada is property taxes. To ensure that all Edmonton property owners pay their fair share of property taxes, the City follows the guidelines established by the provincial government and uses a property assessment process. By legislation, the City collects only enough taxes to support its programs and services—it cannot collect more and it cannot collect less. Your property taxes are broken down into 2 major elements—municipal and education property taxes—and may also include local improvement charges and community revitalization levy allocation, if applicable. Ultimately, by paying your share of property taxes, you contribute to the financial stability of our community and support the quality of life for which Edmonton has become known.

What Assessors Look For Property characteristics City assessors use similar criteria that property appraisers and real estate agents use when pricing a home for sale. For example: Style of home (for examples, bungalow or bi-level) Size of lot Size of home Year built Basement or lower level finish Garage (for example, size, detached or attached) Building condition Type of roof Fireplaces, air conditioning or other special features Neighbourhood Locational factors (for example: proximity to golf courses, lakes, parks, river valley, commercial development and high traffic routes) Swimming pools and associated buildings Information resources used by the City include Property sales Alberta Land Title office records City records (for example, permit and construction information) Your current property assessment notice indicates the City’s estimate of your property’s market value—the amount it would have sold for in the open market—on July 1 of the previous year. And, it is adjusted for any changes in physical condition recorded by December 31. Provincial legislation establishes these dates and requires that property assessed values be estimated every year. If your property was only partially complete as of December 31, your assessment notice will reflect the value of the land plus the value of the building, based on its completion percentage. The City will issue a supplementary assessment notice that will reflect the value of newly completed construction. To ensure assessed values are fair and accurate, they are reviewed at 3 levels: The City's internal checks and balances The Alberta government's annual assessment audit process Individual property owners' review of their notice Assessment to Tax Relationship The City uses the assessed value of your property to calculate the amount of provincial education and municipal property taxes you pay in proportion to the value of the real estate you own. A change in assessed values affects property taxes in the following manner: Average assessed value change = Average municipal tax increase If your property’s value change is similar to the average, city-wide assessed value change, you will see a tax increase that is similar to the average municipal tax increase. Higher than average assessed value change = Higher than average municipal tax increase If your property’s assessed value changed by more than the average assessed value change, you will see a greater than the average municipal tax increase. Lower than average assessed value change = Lower than average municipal tax increase If your property’s assessed value changed by less than the average assessed value change, you will see a tax increase that is less than the average municipal tax increase. To determine if your tax increase will be more or less than the average, review our assessment change reports to compare the percentage change in the assessed value of your property with the average assessment change for all residential properties in Edmonton. Also, take advantage of our tax estimator . Remember your tax bill that arrives in May also includes a provincial education tax amount. The City is required to collect that tax on behalf of the Government of Alberta. Customer Review Period When you receive your property assessment notice in January, take the time to fully review it. You have until the review period deadline to correct the information stated on your notice.  In 2026, the customer review period is open from January 12 - March 23. We encourage you to review your property’s new assessed value, check MyProperty for details specific to your property and get in touch with us by calling 311 ( 780-442-5311 , if outside Edmonton). Our property assessment experts can answer most assessment-related questions with no formal complaint fees required. Amended Property Assessment If the City or a property owner discovers an error, omission or incorrect description in any of the information shown on the property assessment notice, the City may issue an amended assessment notice. Property owners have 60 days from the time of the mailing to review the notice. If you’ve come across an error or disagree with information stated on your amended assessment notice, review your property's information through MyProperty and get in touch with us by calling 311 (780-442-5311, if outside Edmonton). Our property assessment experts can answer most assessment-related questions—with no formal complaint fees required. Property Tax FAQ Open All Close All How can I change my mailing address?

The [budget](https://www.edmonton.ca/city_government/budget-and-finances) process allows City Council and Edmontonians to identify where the money is needed most and helps determine the budget to meet those needs. As part of this process, the City considers where the money to cover municipal programs and services comes from. One of the revenue sources for any municipality in Canada is property taxes. To ensure that all Edmonton property owners pay their fair share of property taxes, the City follows the guidelines established by the provincial government and uses a [property assessment](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property-assessment) process. By legislation, the City collects only enough taxes to support its programs and services—it cannot collect more and it cannot collect less. Your property taxes are broken down into 2 major elements—municipal and education property taxes—and may also include local improvement charges and community revitalization levy allocation, if applicable. Ultimately, by paying your share of property taxes, you contribute to the financial stability of our community and support the quality of life for which Edmonton has become known. For more see [Understanding Your Property Tax](https://www.edmonton.ca/sites/default/files/public-files/TaxMailOutInsertUnderstandingYourTaxes.pdf). #### How the City of Edmonton Calculates Your Property Taxes Open All Close All [Key Dates](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property-taxes#accordion-2873) **January 12, 2026** Property assessment notices mailed to all Edmonton property owners. **January 12, 2026 – March 23, 2026** The 2026 Assessment Review Period. Remember you can file a formal complaint about your property's assessed value, but you cannot file a formal complaint against your property tax bill. **March 23, 2026** Deadline for filing formal property assessment complaints. **March/April 2026** The Government of Alberta establishes its budget to fund the provincial education system. The City of Edmonton must collect provincial education property taxes from Edmonton property owners on behalf of the provincial government. **May 2026** Property tax notices mailed to all property owners. **June 30, 2026** Deadline for payment of property taxes. [What Assessors Look For](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property-taxes#accordion-2038) **Property characteristics** City assessors use similar criteria that property appraisers and real estate agents use when pricing a home for sale. For example: - Style of home (for examples, bungalow or bi-level) - Size of lot - Size of home - Year built - Basement or lower level finish - Garage (for example, size, detached or attached) - Building condition - Type of roof - Fireplaces, air conditioning or other special features - Neighbourhood - Locational factors (for example: proximity to golf courses, lakes, parks, river valley, commercial development and high traffic routes) - Swimming pools and associated buildings **Information resources used by the City include** - Property sales - Alberta Land Title office records - City records (for example, permit and construction information) Your current property assessment notice indicates the City’s estimate of your property’s market value—the amount it would have sold for in the open market—on July 1 of the previous year. And, it is adjusted for any changes in physical condition recorded by December 31. Provincial legislation establishes these dates and requires that property assessed values be estimated every year. If your property was only partially complete as of December 31, your assessment notice will reflect the value of the land plus the value of the building, based on its completion percentage. The City will issue a **supplementary assessment notice** that will reflect the value of newly completed construction. To ensure assessed values are fair and accurate, they are reviewed at 3 levels: - The City's internal checks and balances - The Alberta government's annual assessment audit process - Individual property owners' review of their notice [Assessment to Tax Relationship](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property-taxes#accordion-3822) The City uses the assessed value of your property to calculate the amount of provincial education and municipal [property taxes](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property_tax_assessment/tax-breakdown "Tax Breakdown") you pay in proportion to the value of the real estate you own. A change in assessed values affects property taxes in the following manner: **Average assessed value change = Average municipal tax increase** If your property’s value change is similar to the average, city-wide assessed value change, you will see a tax increase that is similar to the average municipal tax increase. **Higher than average assessed value change = Higher than average municipal tax increase** If your property’s assessed value changed by more than the average assessed value change, you will see a greater than the average municipal tax increase. **Lower than average assessed value change = Lower than average municipal tax increase** If your property’s assessed value changed by less than the average assessed value change, you will see a tax increase that is less than the average municipal tax increase. To determine if your tax increase will be more or less than the average, review our [assessment change reports](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property_tax_assessment/reference-materials "Reference Materials") to compare the percentage change in the assessed value of your property with the average assessment change for all residential properties in Edmonton. Also, take advantage of our [tax estimator](https://taxestimator.edmonton.ca/ "Property Tax Estimator"). Remember your tax bill that arrives in May also includes a [provincial education tax](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property_tax_assessment/tax-breakdown#stack135543) amount. The City is required to collect that tax on behalf of the Government of Alberta. [Customer Review Period](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property-taxes#accordion-2681) When you receive your property assessment notice in January, take the time to fully review it. You have until the review period deadline to correct the information stated on your notice. In 2026, the customer review period is open **from January 12 - March 23.** We encourage you to review your property’s new assessed value, check [MyProperty](https://myproperty.edmonton.ca/) for details specific to your property and get in touch with us by calling 311 ([780-442-5311](tel:780-442-5311), if outside Edmonton). Our property assessment experts can answer most assessment-related questions with no formal complaint fees required.

Property owners have 60 days from the time of the mailing to review the notice. If you’ve come across an error or disagree with information stated on your amended assessment notice, review your property's information through [MyProperty](https://myproperty.edmonton.ca/) and get in touch with us by calling 311 (780-442-5311, if outside Edmonton).

The City of Edmonton distributes [property tax notices](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property-taxes#stack135549) in late May every year and asks property owners to pay their taxes in full by the due date of June 30 to avoid [late-payment penalties](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property_tax_assessment/penalties-service-charges).

The mortgage lender through which you pay your mortgage can add your tax payments to your mortgage payment and submit payment to the City on your behalf. Many lenders offer this service to their mortgage customers. The City sends you the original property tax notice for your records. The name of the mortgage lender being billed appears on your tax notice. Contact your financial institution to confirm that the payment is being made on your behalf. Mortgage lenders submit payments by June 30. However, it can take up to 15 business days for the payment to show on your tax account.

The [budget](https://www.edmonton.ca/city_government/budget-and-finances) process allows City Council and Edmontonians to identify where the money is needed most and helps determine the budget to meet those needs. As part of this process, the City considers where the money to cover municipal programs and services comes from. One of the revenue sources for any municipality in Canada is property taxes. To ensure that all Edmonton property owners pay their fair share of property taxes, the City follows the guidelines established by the provincial government and uses a [property assessment](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property-assessment) process. By legislation, the City collects only enough taxes to support its programs and services—it cannot collect more and it cannot collect less. Your property taxes are broken down into 2 major elements—municipal and education property taxes—and may also include local improvement charges and community revitalization levy allocation, if applicable. Ultimately, by paying your share of property taxes, you contribute to the financial stability of our community and support the quality of life for which Edmonton has become known.

Remember you can file a formal complaint about your property's assessed value, but you cannot file a formal complaint against your property tax bill. **March 23, 2026** Deadline for filing formal property assessment complaints. **March/April 2026** The Government of Alberta establishes its budget to fund the provincial education system. The City of Edmonton must collect provincial education property taxes from Edmonton property owners on behalf of the provincial government. **May 2026** Property tax notices mailed to all property owners. **June 30, 2026** Deadline for payment of property taxes. [What Assessors Look For](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property-taxes#accordion-2038) **Property characteristics** City assessors use similar criteria that property appraisers and real estate agents use when pricing a home for sale. For example: - Style of home (for examples, bungalow or bi-level) - Size of lot - Size of home - Year built - Basement or lower level finish - Garage (for example, size, detached or attached) - Building condition - Type of roof - Fireplaces, air conditioning or other special features - Neighbourhood - Locational factors (for example: proximity to golf courses, lakes, parks, river valley, commercial development and high traffic routes) - Swimming pools and associated buildings **Information resources used by the City include** - Property sales - Alberta Land Title office records - City records (for example, permit and construction information) Your current property assessment notice indicates the City’s estimate of your property’s market value—the amount it would have sold for in the open market—on July 1 of the previous year. And, it is adjusted for any changes in physical condition recorded by December 31. Provincial legislation establishes these dates and requires that property assessed values be estimated every year. If your property was only partially complete as of December 31, your assessment notice will reflect the value of the land plus the value of the building, based on its completion percentage. The City will issue a **supplementary assessment notice** that will reflect the value of newly completed construction. To ensure assessed values are fair and accurate, they are reviewed at 3 levels: - The City's internal checks and balances - The Alberta government's annual assessment audit process - Individual property owners' review of their notice [Assessment to Tax Relationship](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property-taxes#accordion-3822) The City uses the assessed value of your property to calculate the amount of provincial education and municipal [property taxes](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property_tax_assessment/tax-breakdown "Tax Breakdown") you pay in proportion to the value of the real estate you own. A change in assessed values affects property taxes in the following manner: **Average assessed value change = Average municipal tax increase** If your property’s value change is similar to the average, city-wide assessed value change, you will see a tax increase that is similar to the average municipal tax increase. **Higher than average assessed value change = Higher than average municipal tax increase** If your property’s assessed value changed by more than the average assessed value change, you will see a greater than the average municipal tax increase. **Lower than average assessed value change = Lower than average municipal tax increase** If your property’s assessed value changed by less than the average assessed value change, you will see a tax increase that is less than the average municipal tax increase. To determine if your tax increase will be more or less than the average, review our [assessment change reports](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property_tax_assessment/reference-materials "Reference Materials") to compare the percentage change in the assessed value of your property with the average assessment change for all residential properties in Edmonton. Also, take advantage of our [tax estimator](https://taxestimator.edmonton.ca/ "Property Tax Estimator"). Remember your tax bill that arrives in May also includes a [provincial education tax](https://www.edmonton.ca/residential_neighbourhoods/property_tax_assessment/tax-breakdown#stack135543) amount. The City is required to collect that tax on behalf of the Government of Alberta.
