My husband and I purchased a new build home this year. How do we claim the GST credit? I see something about form GST190 but where is this on Turbo tax?

Does this form need to be submitted directly to revenue Canada? I am unsure if we even qualify but paid GST on our home.

To claim the GST/HST rebate for homes bought from a builder:

Fill out Form GST190 to recover the GST or federal part of the HST.
Fill out Form RC7190 ON to recover the provincial part of the HST (if your home is in Ontario).

To claim the GST/HST rebate for owner-built homes:

Fill out Form GST191 and Form GST191-WS to recover the GST or federal part of the HST.
Fill out Form RC7191 ON to recover the provincial part of the HST (if your home is in Ontario).
