Vacant Home Tax
March 7, 2024 | Toronto
Owners of properties in Toronto that are classified within the residential property tax class are required to declare the occupancy status of their property every year, even if they reside there. However, the tax does not apply to:
- Properties that are the principal residence of the owner
- Properties that are the principal residence of a permitted occupant or occupied by a tenant (including business tenants)
- Properties that qualify for an exemption
The deadline to make a declaration of the property’s 2023 occupancy status has been extended to Friday, March 15.
Visit the City of Toronto Vacant Home Tax information page to get further details and declare your occupancy status.
