How do I pay my taxes?
Monthly payments
- Mortgage Company Payments: You may arrange to pay your taxes through your mortgage bank or company. If you have chosen this method, it will be noted under the Reference Section on your tax notice. No payment is required at this time.
NOTE: if you have arranged to pay your taxes through your mortgage and this does not appear on your tax notice, please contact your mortgage provider immediately.
-
Tax Instalment Payment Plan (TIPP): you may arrange with the Town of Banff to make monthly payments through automatic withdrawal from your bank account.
Single annual payment
Important Notice Regarding Your Payment and Canada PostYour payment must be received by 4:30 p.m. June 30, 2011. If your mailed payment is not delivered by the due date because of the current postal service action, you will still be charged interest penalty, regardless of the post date stamp. We suggest you avoid this possibility by choosing an alternative form of delivery should the action continue.
- By mail: send a cheque or money order payable to the Town of Banff to:
Town of Banff
Attn: Taxes and Utilities
Box 1260
BANFF AB T1L 1A1Record your roll number or your property address on the cheque and enclose the bottom portion of your tax notice. Post-dated cheques must be dated no later than the due date. Your payment must be postmarked on or before the due date to avoid late payment charges.

- Telephone/On-line Banking: If you are registered with your bank for payment services, you can pay your taxes through most chartered banks using telephone, on-line and ATM banking services.
What if my payment is late?
Penalty charges of 1.5% per month are charged on all overdue accounts.
If there is an amount owing on your account, any payment will be applied first to the penalties and then to current taxes.
