primary residence tax deductions?
I've researched this but I seem to find conflicting info. In Canada and Quebec, can you deduct your property/school taxes and mortgage interest of your primary residence from your taxable income?
In Canada there is no deduction for property tax or mortgae interest .
In Quebec there also in no deduction for either of these, however until 2010 the Quebec govt will afford to you a Real Estate Tax Credit for prperty tax you paid either as a tenant ot Landlord as of December 2010 evn if you were in the residence for 1 month as long as ot was December 2010 you will be able to receive a refundable tax credit of up to $ 604 by filling out Schedule B of teh Quebec Tax return.
Jus a note for all readers 2010 is the last year that Quebec will give out the Real Estate Tax Credit along with the QST credit ( Like teh Federal GST credit) starting JUly 1 2010 Quebec is replacing all its major tax credits with a Solidarity tax credit that will be paid monthly and only by direct deposit.
