Where do I apply for the Home Owner Grant?
Apply through the Province of British Columbia. Municipalities no longer collect those applications. The city page links the provincial service for current-year and eligible retroactive applications.

Must I apply for the grant again each year?
The city says eligible owners must claim each year to confirm ongoing eligibility. An earlier grant, mortgage-provider payment or tax-deferment arrangement does not automatically submit the annual application.

Who is responsible if a mortgage provider pays my tax?
The property owner still must claim any eligible Home Owner Grant. The city's guidance treats the grant and payment of the remaining tax as separate responsibilities that both matter for avoiding late amounts.

Can I still claim a grant for the prior year?
The page describes a provincial retroactive application where the owner qualified at December 31 of the previous year and remains the registered owner. Confirm the current provincial conditions through its linked application service.

Where are the city's payment options listed?
Use How to Pay Property Taxes and Utilities. It lists city payment routes. A provincial Home Owner Grant application is not itself a payment of the balance left on the municipal bill.
