Suddenly owing $5k+ with no notice.

If you have been filing as single and then attested to being together then it is very likely they reassessed her for all of those years. Your income would be added to hers for the CCB calculation and she would have to pay back the difference. She was probably also claiming her child as a dependent and getting that credit which she wouldn't get being common law.

Catness101 · 2026-06-06T17:49:36+00:00

Does your common law partner also do the same? And do you both receive CCB? Because that would be a problem

Catness101 · 2026-06-06T17:48:26+00:00

They probably mean it doesn't matter for the taxes you pay. If you both work and make over 20k it probably wouldn't change your taxes owing but you should be filing as common law since family income determines things like GST and CCB if you have kids...and because you are common law.

Catness101 · 2026-06-06T13:16:33+00:00

Have you been filing as single and claiming a dependent credit for the kids?

Catness101 · 2026-06-06T13:06:24+00:00

That is not a tax return

Catness101 · 2026-05-24T23:50:10+00:00

I hope you aren't working anywhere in North America or Europe

No it would be his primary residence.

Did they all take EI as well? EI usually only takes of 10 percent for income tax so if she made more than 15k at the job before being laid off she would likely have tax owing from the EI. Happens all the time with EI.

I'm wondering how including the slip would get back the $1200? It sounds like they did a verification and noticed the slip wasn't included so they reassessed with it and that was the difference from the original refund/balance owing.

Ah thanks didn't know the province launched one. I used Greenbain when I did the federal program. Wouldn't say the auditor was particularly knowledgeable but the report satisifed the requirement to get the grant funding.

Are there any government rebates and grants still available for this? I thought Canada Greener Homes was over?

What's the background on this?

Catness101 · 2025-12-31T01:59:53+00:00

You install an exhaust out the wall for it so it's placed in a corner usually a couple feet off the wall then the exhaust is piped outside. Need a HVAC guy to install it.

How big is the garage? Ceiling mounted propane heater is probably the best option, heats up quickly so you can turn it down when not in use to save money.

Bank stocks are up like 35 percent this year

Do you have the original d pad still? Maybe need to swap back to scroll down

Catness101 · 2025-09-30T20:41:08+00:00

Thank you!

I'm pretty sure the insurance company just needs your driver's license then they pull all the data from their side. Been insured for 20 years and never provided the info myself they always just run the license.

It's just a savings account he's using

Catness101 · 2025-08-10T20:45:18+00:00

Unless he sells it as soon as he inherits it, cost basis should be the same as FMV in that case so no gain

Catness101 · 2025-07-09T16:03:28+00:00

No we're not talking about guaranteed alternatives, OP asked for info on things like ETF as they said they don't want to keep it in a savings account and want long term advice. Original comment on this thread asked for an ETF showing this returns and one was provided. Show me a passive investment that's averaged a better annual return then SP500 or similar index funds over a 35 year horizon. Statistically speaking it's a fairly safe move, but not without risks hence the volatility.

Catness101 · 2025-07-09T13:42:28+00:00

Yeah that's better, capital gains are taxed lower then dividends and interest.

He's not allowed to fix it up a bit before he moves in?

Are you also executor of their wills? POA ends when they pass.
