BTIPP - Cancel BTIPP
If you cancel your Business Tax Instalment Payment Plan (BTIPP) participation, all unpaid Business Improvement Area (BIA) tax is due immediately and subject to penalties in accordance with the Business Improvement Area (BIA) Tax Bylaw. To request the balance owing, contact Tax.
Written notification is required no later than the 22nd of the month prior to the next scheduled withdrawal to cancel your BTIPP participation for any reason including selling or closing your business.

If you have missed the 22nd of the month deadline for cancellation, your bank account will be debited for the next instalment.
