You can claim eligible moving expenses if:

  • you moved and established a new home to work or run a business at a new location; or 
  • you moved to be a student in full-time attendance in a post-secondary program at a university, college or other educational institution.

To qualify, your new home must be at least 40 kilometres (by the shortest usual public route) closer to your new work or school.
