Can anyone apply for the 2022 Ontario Trillium Benefit?

The 2022 Ontario Trillium Benefit section is part of my tax return and I have never heard of it before.  

Both sections indicate Rent or property taxes for your principal residence in Ontario was paid by or for you in 2021

Does this mean and apply to us since we paid our property taxes for the house we own/live in?

Thanks

The Ontario Trillium Benefit (OTB) is the combined payment of the Ontario energy and property tax credit, the Northern Ontario energy credit, and the Ontario sales tax credit.

 

In order to be qualified for the Ontario Trillium Benefit you must be eligible for one of the three credits as per mentioned above. To know if you are qualified for the OTB you can follow this link from the Ontario government to receive further information.
