Click "Continue"

Select "Yes" to "Are you applying for the 2017 Ontario energy and property tax credit?"

Complete the "Payments Related to your Principal Residence" appropriately.  Then click "Continue"

The rent does not affect the tax return.  It is included in your application for the Ontario Trillium Benefit.
