The rules at a glance
| Who assesses | SAMA (Saskatchewan Assessment Management Agency) for most municipalities; Regina, Saskatoon, Prince Albert and Swift Current do their own assessments |
|---|---|
| Cycle | Revaluation of all properties every four years (the latest in 2025) |
| Valuation date | Base date of January 1, 2023 for the 2025 revaluation values |
| Notices | Roll prepared every year; notices mailed to all owners in a revaluation year, otherwise often only to owners whose assessment changed (Saskatoon 2026: from January 5) |
| Deadline to challenge | 30 days after the assessment notice is mailed, 60 days in a revaluation year; the exact date is printed on the notice |
| First step | Attempt an agreement to adjust with the assessor, then a notice of appeal to the municipality’s Board of Revision |
| Appeal | Assessment Appeals Committee (AAC) of the Saskatchewan Municipal Board, within 30 days of being served with the decision; then the Court of Appeal on a question of law or jurisdiction |
| Fees | Set by each municipality and payable before the deadline; Regina and Saskatoon: $30 for a house or condo, $150 to $750 for other properties; AAC: $50 to $600 depending on taxable value |
| Can the value go up? | No official source says so explicitly: the Board of Revision may confirm or change the assessment, and the municipality or SAMA may also appeal |
