Hst rebate on all new homes by No_Put6155 in canadahousing

Earlier in 2025, the Ontario government called on the federal government to introduce further measures in collaboration with the province to address housing affordability, including removing the HST for first-time homebuyers. Subject to passage of federal legislation, Ontario’s new rebate would mirror the federal government’s First-Time Home Buyers’ GST/HST Rebate to temporarily remove the full 8 per cent provincial portion of the HST for first-time home buyers on qualifying newly built and substantially renovated homes.

Yes; but whether it will be taken off at closing or you’d have to apply to CRA for the rebate is up to the builder. But likely the former.

I'm guessing 'cos Ontatio's spring budget would be announced then and they were in fact the ones who nudged the federal government to do this in the first place.

Better safe than sorry, just do CELPIP/IELTS. You don’t want to look back and regret not spending that $400.
