GST/HST New Housing Rebate Applications

For Owner Occupied New Builds and Homes Purcahsed from a Builder

• This application allows you to receive back a portion of the GST/HST paid on a qualifying new home purchase whether bought from a builder or built by you.  You may also claim a rebate if you substantially renovated your existing home.  For further information including eligibility criteria please visit this link.  Note, in many instances when you purchase a home from a builder the rebate is applied for by the builder and assigned to the builder. Meaning the purchase price is already net of the GST/HST rebate.  If you don’t qualify for the GST/HST rebate at closing, the rebate to be paid to the builder will be added to your closing costs.
