As per CRA website, you qualify if you lived, on a permanent basis, for a continuous period of at least six consecutive months, in a prescribed northern zone or a prescribed intermediate zone. You can have access to all information regarding this deduction on this CRA link.

 

We also suggest you confirm with CRA before applying for this deduction.
