Appeal Your Assessment

If you have questions about the information contained in your assessment, please call Service Regina at 306-777-7000. Staff can also help you update your mailing address, property information or school support shown on the Assessment Roll or on your mailed Notice of Assessment. If there is incorrect information on your property title, you will have to contact Information Services Corporation of Saskatchewan (sometimes referred to as Saskatchewan Land Titles.)

If you feel there is an error in your assessment after speaking to an Assessor, you can submit an appeal to the Board of Revision.

What you can appeal

You can appeal to the Board of Revision if you feel there is an error involving:

• property valuation
• property classification
• exemption
• preparation or content of the Assessment Roll
• preparation or content of your Notice of Assessment

You cannot appeal your taxes or the services you receive.

You do not have to appeal if:

• your school support is incorrect (contact Service Regina at 306-777-7000)
• your property's address or property owners listed on the Assessment Roll or Notice of Assessment are incorrect (contact Information Services Corporation of Saskatchewan )
