Home Accessibility Tax Credit (HATC)
The HATC is a non-refundable government (CRA) tax credit for eligible home renovation or alteration expenses that allows a qualifying individual to gain access to, or to be mobile or functional within, the eligible dwelling or reduce the risk of harm to the qualifying individual within the dwelling. You may be able to claim this credit if you are a qualifying individual or an eligible individual.
Current Rules
The HATC is calculated by applying the lowest personal income tax rate (15% in 2022) to an amount that is currently the lesser of $10,000 and the eligible expenses in respect of an eligible dwelling for the taxation year. The taxpayer may claim a tax credit of up to $1,500. Eligible expenses must be incurred for work performed or goods acquired in respect of a qualifying renovation of an eligible dwelling of a qualifying individual.
