Paying Your Taxes

Tax bills are mailed to your home twice a year. The first one is mailed in late January and due in two instalments in late February and April. The final tax bill is mailed in May and due in late June and September.

Methods of Paying your Taxes:

There are several options for paying your taxes?

PRE-AUTHORIZED PAYMENT - For full details on the monthly pre-authorized payment plan, including an application that can be downloaded, see our payment plan page.
At participating banks/trust companies and credit unions (at teller or through bank machine). Please use payment stubs provided with your bill.
By telephone or internet through your bank or trust company. Your roll number is your account number.
By mail. When mailing a payment, please enclose the payment stub and make your cheque payable to the "Town of Ajax". Cheques may be post-dated to the due date of the instalment, and will be held by the Finance Department. Please write your roll number on the front of your cheque.
Drop box to the left of the main doors at Town Hall, 65 Harwood Avenue South.
In person at the Finance Department at Town Hall, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Debit payment is available.
If you pay your taxes with your mortgage company, the mortgage company should be shown on your tax bill along with a mark saying "Do not Pay". This means we have sent your tax bill information to them for payment. This tax bill is for your records; you do not have to send a cheque. If the mortgage company's name does not appear, please contact them immediately.

Please Note:

Payment is deemed to be made on the date the payment is received in the Finance Department, NOT on the date mailed; late payments are subject to penalty/interest charges.

Penalty/Interest Payments:

Penalty/interest charges will be added to instalments not paid by the due date at the rate of 1.25% on the first day of each month. Penalty/interest charges are set by By-law under the authority of the Municipal Act and cannot be waived or reduced by the Manager of Taxation or Council.
