What are Supplemental Taxes?
Supplemental Tax Bills
SUPPLEMENTAL TAX BILLS ARE DUE OCTOBER 15 2025.
A Supplementary (or Additional) tax bill may be issued as we receive information that changes the assessed value or the tax class of a property. If you have made additions or improvements to your home or business property, it might change the value of your property as assessed by Manitoba Assessment Services. The Town of Ste Anne will issue a supplementary tax bill that will reflect the change in your property tax amount as a result of the changes in your property value.
Regular tax bills that have been issued for a property that includes a newly constructed home may cover the land only, and not the building, until Manitoba Assessment Service is able to complete an assessment of the new home. There may be a considerable delay from your occupancy date / substantial completion of the home, until you receive a tax bill that includes the house. This is typically 1 to 2 years lag time before the assessment of a newly built house is completed by Manitoba Assessment Services.
Once Manitoba Assessment Services has completed an assessment, they will provide the supplementary assessment information to the Town of Ste. Anne. Under the Manitoba Municipal Act, the Town is then required to send a supplementary tax bill(s) to the registered owner on title at the time information is received, with the calculated taxes covering the assessment changes from the date of occupancy. This can be up to 2 years’ worth of supplementary taxes. There are times where a supplementary tax bill will be for a period longer than owned by the current registered owner. If this occurs, the current registered owner should contact their lawyer’s office to obtain property tax reimbursement from the previous owner(s) for the period owned by them. The Town does not issue separate supplemental tax bills to previous owners.
Until assessment information is available for supplementary taxes, the Town does not provide estimations for what supplementary taxes would be for new builds. Also, owners should note that any school tax credits are not provided for supplementary tax bills. Owners can inquiry with their accountant during income tax filing if they can apply for the school tax credits at that time.
Supplementary bills have different due dates from the original tax due dates.
Please see your bill for reference.
A supplementary bill would result from:
- Building a new home
- An enlargement or improvement of a building or structure
