Medical Expenses Tax Credits

Tax Deductions

There exist other tax deductions that are available on a province by province basis, such as builders in Ontario and B.C. being able to recover the HST on the lumber and materials purchased to build or renovate a home, or the Manitoba homeowner’s home tax credits.

Inquire about all the tax deductions available to you and you may be surprised at how much money you can recover just by being a homeowner. Source: ComFree

Home Mortgage Interest Deduction

“The IRS allows you to deduct for the interest you pay your lender,” says Greene-Lewis. Home mortgage interest is one of the biggest deductions for those who itemize, and can make a huge difference for filers. You should be advised of interest paid to your lender on a 1098 form sent out annually in January and/or early February. Source: Investopedia
