New tax credit to help offset cost of adding a secondary unit for family

Building a secondary unit for a senior or a family member with a disability?

The Multigenerational Home Renovation Tax Credit (MHRTC), provides a refundable tax credit of up to $7,500 for constructing a secondary suite, starting in 2023.

The value of the credit is 15 per cent of eligible expenses or $50,000 (whichever amount is less). For example, if the qualifying expenditures totaled $50,000, it would result in a refundable tax credit of $7,500 ($50,000 x 15%).
