Unfortunately, the Ontario Staycation credit is not finalized at the Canada Revenue Agency yet. An adjustment will need to be done at a later date if you file before it is ready. 

Note: Printing or filing of your return is not available till February 21. Once Netfile and printing is available, the credit will be available in the return.

I'm getting an error saying don't e-file yet, there's changes to the credit that will be included in the next release.  My software is up to date, when will the release be ready?

I am using the TurboTax Standard 2022 (Download) and cant enter the accommodation details onto worksheet ON479 (the fields are "calculated field") ... what are the alternatives? or if this is to be updated, when will the updates be available.  Thank you.

Please try using the Easy-Step method and you can use the Find icon to search Ontario Staycation to go apply for the credit.

I am having problems entering the GST number for hotels to claim the Ontario Staycation Tax Credit.  I type in the GST number, it contains a combination of letters and numbers and your program will not accept the letters.  I get the message "Please enter a numeric value rounded to the nearest whole number".  In order to save and continue, for the interim, I replaced the letters with zeros.  However I will need to correct before sending to CRA.  Any suggestions?

Just skip the alpha and input numeric only.  I did that, e-filed and CRA accepted it

The gst code on my receipt started with a letter and the rest were numbers.  I skipped entering the fist letter, hope this helps.
