Claiming Ontario Property Tax as tenant

Last year I did not apply to this bc as a tenant, I saw one year I claimed on it and it seems CRA is seeking repayment, so not sure how this should work.

 

If I am a tenant and not the owner of the property my understanding is that I'm still eligible to claim this putting the amount paid for the year 2025 excluding platform commissions, or taxes, rather only the amount regarding the rent, given the owner would be making the property tax payments.

 

I also wanted to know municipality or name of landlord can simply be North York, or should it be Toronto.

 

The house is not social housing, charitable housing, or a student residence its a private property so I'm sure it pays property taxes. I'm confirming with landlord that the house is subject to property taxes, but any assistance would be appreciated.
