Why Avoid Late Filings for the New Home HST Rebate

The HST Rebate in Ontario provides an amazing opportunity for residential property owners throughout the province to get some of the money they spend on building new homes or renovating their primary residence back. A successful application to Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) for the HST Rebate on New Homes or the New Residential Rental Property Rebate Program can put tens of thousands of dollars back in your pocket. However for your application to be considered it must be within the timeline laid out by the CRA. It’s important that you avoid late filings for the program, so if you want to ensure that your application meets all the important deadlines, contact the experts at Rebate4U. Our team has over a decade of experience with the Rebate program and can ensure that your application is being submitted accurately and in a timely manner. 

To learn more about why you should avoid late filings for the New Home HST Rebate in Ontario, read on.

Why Avoid Late Filings 

Why Avoid Late Filings for the New Home HST RebateThe HST Rebate in Ontario is processed through Canada Revenue Agency, who is strict about timelines. As such, they do not consider applications that are submitted after the deadline. If you are managing a home renovation in Ontario alongside the tasks required for your day-to-day life, staying on top of your submission for this program can easily get pushed aside, despite its financial benefits. That’s one of the many reasons it’s recommended that you leave your application to the experts at Rebate4U. Because of our experience and familiarity with the process we can help streamline your application and maximize your benefit. 

Whether you’re submitting for a home or a condo, Canada Revenue Agency accepts applications within 2 years of closing on the property or completion of the upgrades. To ensure you’re working within the correct timeline consult with our experts for more tailored guidance. 

When Are Late Applications Accepted

The guidelines for applications are definitive, there is little grace for late submissions. Canada Revenue Agency may allow for more time if there is a disruption that is out of your control like a natural disaster such as floods and fires. You may also be granted an exception if there was a major illness that affected you, a disruption to postal service that inhibited your ability to apply, or if Canada Revenue Agency was at fault for the late filing. It’s best to proceed with your application without the hope for an exception because they are rarely granted. If you’re concerned about the timing of your home renovation or rental agreement, our team will provide more insight on how you may be able to cash-in on the rebate.
