2. Your property has multiple owners, and the Home Owner Grant has already been claimed for your property
3. You are a person with a disability claiming an additional grant for the first time, or you need to provide a copy of the provincial “Level 2” certificate annually

2. Do I have to claim my Home Owner Grant electronically?
No. If you prefer, you have the option to claim your Home Owner Grant in person at Courtenay City Hall, through the mail, by fax to 250-334-4241, or dropped in the after-hours mail slot located in the main front doors at City Hall.

3. I waited until after July 2. How can I claim my Home Owner Grant?
