Tax Adjustment Details Updated

The tax adjustments page now outlines Section 357 and 358 relief criteria and ARB appeal information, while the charity rebate language is no longer shown in the same form.

The Tax Adjustments page now presents Section 357 and Section 358 relief more explicitly, including the qualifying circumstances for a reduced assessment, late tax roll cases, and ARB appeals for sickness or extreme financial hardship. It also keeps the annual application deadline as the last day of February of the following year and points users to the Section 357/358 Application or the Taxation office at 613-967-3243 for submission help.
