The Small Business and Charities Protection Act provides property tax relief that
rebates a portion of the annual property taxes for registered charities occupying commercial /
industrial property. There is no rebate for residential properties because the tax rate
is lower.
A "registered charity" means a registered charity as defined by subsection 248(1)
of the Income Tax Act (Canada) that has a registration number issued by the Department
of National Revenue.
Criteria for Charities Rebate Program:
Registered charities must submit an application to the City of Mississauga by the last day
of February of the year following the tax year in order to be considered.
For further information, please call the Customer Service Centre at 3-1-1, or if
calling outside the City limits call 905-615-4311 or e-mail at tax@mississauga.ca.
To take advantage of this program a "Registered Charity Tax Relief Application"
form must be completed. To obtain an application please refer to the related link below.
