The Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) is responsible for assessing all properties in the Province of Ontario, including the City of Brampton. MPAC is located at 6745 Century Avenue, Suite #1, Mississauga, Ontario, L5N 8C9 and can be reached at 1-866-296-6722.
The City of Brampton calculates the tax bills based on assessment information supplied by MPAC. In the case of a new house, when there is a delay in receiving the information from MPAC, the City cannot issue a tax bill. This delay can be considerable, with some people not receiving a tax bill for as long as two years after occupancy. To estimate your annual property taxes, please click here.

Assessment Appeals or Request for Reconsideration
If you are not in agreement with the information on your Property Assessment Notice from the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) for the 2018-2023 tax years (non-reassessment years), you may file a Request for Reconsideration (RfR) with MPAC or appeal to the Assessment Review Board (ARB).
There are 2 separate processes to follow depending on the classification of your property.
- For properties classified as residential, farm, managed forest or conservation land:
- File a RfR with MPAC by the March 31 deadline date of the current year.
- MPAC will review your request and come to a determination, if you agree with the review, sign the Minutes of Settlement issued by MPAC. A copy of the Minutes of Settlement will be sent to the City of Brampton for processing.
- If you disagree with the RfR recommendation, you may file an appeal with the ARB before the deadline, which is 90 days from the mailing date on your RfR recommendation. The RfR recommendation must be issued before filing with the ARB.
- For all other property types:
- You may choose to either file a RfR with MPAC or file an appeal directly to the ARB.
- If you do not file a RfR, your deadline to file directly with the ARB is March 31 for annual assessment appeals or 90 days from the notice date for other types of assessments.
The deadline to appeal your Supplementary/Omitted assessment will be detailed on your property assessment notice issued by MPAC.
