Changes in IVIT inspection fees and requirements
Posted On: June 1, 2021
In January, the College initiated a consultation on the IVIT Inspection Program fees. The consultation ended on March 9 and the College reviewed and considered all feedback received.
During the May 26, 2021 Council meeting, Council approved the following changes to the Inspection Program fees:
- The regularly scheduled 5-year inspection fee will be reduced from $2,500 to $2,000.
- The fee for an inspection ordered by the Inspection Committee will be reduced from $2,500 to $2,000.
- The payment schedule for new premises will change from a payment of $1,250 at the time of Part I and a payment of $1,250 at the time of Part II, to a one-time payment of $2,500 due prior to the Part I inspection. Please be aware that any premises invoiced for the Part I fee prior to the implementation of the new inspection fees will be invoiced for $1,250 at the time of their Part II inspection.
- When a new premises submits a Registering an IVIT Premises form, they will be required to pay a non-refundable Premises Registration Fee of $100 payable at the time of registration. The $100 fee will be applied to the new premises inspection fee and is non-refundable in case the premises elects to cancel their registration. The fee addresses the costs incurred by the College when processing the registration of a new premises.
In addition to the fee changes, Council also approved changes in the Inspection Program Requirements for existing/5-year scheduled and new premises.
