City of Toronto Property Tax Cancellation, Reduction or Refund
If your property changed a lot during the year, you can ask the City of Toronto to cancel, reduce or refund part of your property taxes. Reasons include fire, demolition or natural disaster damage, repairs that kept the property unusable for 3 months or more, the property becoming vacant or tax exempt, or an overcharge from a clerical or factual error. You must keep paying your taxes in full as billed while you wait.
