The new Underused Housing Tax became effective January 1, 2022. While it does apply primarily to non-residents, it also requires corporations, trusts (including bare trusts) and partnerships that hold residential property to file an annual return or face a stiff penalty. The extended deadline for these returns is October 31, 2023. Join us for an expanded webinar in which we will take a detailed look at this new tax, discuss who has to file the return, what exemptions are available and the filing requirements.
DETAILS
Budget 2021 proposed the introduction of a national underused housing tax to ensure that “foreign, non-residents, who simply use Canada as a place to passively store their wealth in housing, pay their fair share.” However, as we will discuss in this webinar, the impact of this new tax goes beyond affecting only non-residents.
Join Maureen Vance CPA, CA for a comprehensive discussion of the new Underused Housing Tax and what you need to know before the upcoming October 31, 2023 extended filing deadline. The webinar will include a discussion of various scenarios that you could encounter and the UHT obligations for each scenario.
