OEPTC and OSHPTG Not reflected properly by UFile


TCG

Recommended Posts

I just notice that the property tax information is not being populated in

the form and therefore not calculating anything for OEPTC and OSHPTG

 

This is for both 2013 and 2014 taxes.

 

Could you please advise how to fix this in your form?

 

I have already included the information in the Owner declaration section

 

I have completed all sections

As of July 2012, the Ontario Trillium Benefit (OTB) will include payments from the Ontario sales tax credit, the Ontario energy and property tax credit, and the Northern Ontario energy credit. The payments of these three credits will be combined and delivered on a monthly basis to better match the timing of the assistance with the expenses incurred by the taxpayers. You must apply and be eligible for at least one of these credits to receive the OTB.

 

The component of the sales tax is linked with the claiming of the GST, whereas components of the tax credit for energy costs and property taxes are linked with the claiming of ON-BEN.

 

To claim the OTB using the program, please follow these steps:

1- In the "QuikClik Navigator" section of your tax file, select "CRA questions" and apply for the GST/HST tax credit. Choose "Yes" from the drop-down menu and click on "Next" at the bottom of the page.

2- Return to the "QuikClik Navigator" and select "Ontario tax and credits".

3- On the screen to your right, select "ON-BEN - Application for 2015 Ontario Trillium Benefit (Ontario sales tax credit, Ontario energy and property tax credit, Northern Ontario energy credit) and the Ontario Senior Homeowners' Property Tax Grant".

4- Claim your credits, then click "Next" at the bottom of the page.

5- Return to the "Ontario tax and credits" section and, on the page to your right, select the line that corresponds to your situation ("ON-BEN - Declaration for home owners, tenants or college residence"). Enter your information.

6- Click the "Results" tab. A warning message might appear, indicating that your income is too high to claim the GST credit. Ignore this warning if you wish to receive the Ontario sales tax component.

 

The program produces an estimate of the Trillium benefit for July 2015 to June 2016.

You can apply for the Ontario Senior Homeowners' Property Tax Grant (OSHPTG), if, on December 31st, 2014, you met the following conditions:

 

a) You were 64 or older.

b) You owned and occupied a principal residence in Ontario for which property taxes have been paid by or for you in 2014.

 

The OSHPTG is not paid automatically. To apply for this grant, please follow these steps:

 

1. In the "QuikClik Navigator", select "Ontario tax and credits".

2. On the screen on your right-hand side, choose "ON-BEN - Application for 2015 Ontario Trillium Benefit...".

3. On the page that appears, on the line ''The taxpayer elect to receive the 2015 OTB entitlement in one payment in June 2016? (Yes/No)'', choose the option that corresponds to your situation in the drop-down menu to the right.

4. Return to the "Ontario tax and credits" section in the "QuikClik Navigator", select "ON-BEN -  Declaration for home owners" on the page to your right and enter your information on the newly generated page.

 

If you meet the eligibility requirements, box 6113 will be checked off and your total amount of property tax paid in 2014  will be reported in box 6112. Part B on the back of the form will be completed according to the information you have entered.

The amount that you will receive for 2015 will be determined according to the information provided on your 2014 tax return. You will receive your grant within four to eight weeks after receiving your Notice of assessment.

The program will generate an estimate of the Ontario Trillium Benefit.

It seems to me that UFile has not solved the problem even now in 2021. I have the same problem of Property Tax Paid in 61120 not reflected and thus cannot claim OSHPTG . I have followed what pupuch06 suggested but still with no luck. I am using the 2021 Ufile for windows version. Can anyone help?
