As per Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), you are eligible for the grant if all of the following conditions apply to you. You:

  • were at least 64 years old on December 31, 2022;
  • were a resident of Ontario on December 31, 2022;
  • or your spouse or common-law partner owned and occupied a principal residence on December 31, 2022, for which you or someone on your behalf paid Ontario property tax for 2022;
  • were not confined to a prison or similar institution on December 31, 2022, and for the next 179 days; and
  • file a 2022 income tax and benefit return in which you include an application for the OSHPTG.

For more information, you can visit the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) website - Ontario Senior Homeowners' Property Tax Grant (OSHPTG)

 

If it is a Warning and not an Error, then it can be ignored and skipped. The Warning alert does not automatically mean something was done or entered incorrectly. It can be triggered if a high amount of certain credits or deductions are being claimed. Click on Review to verify that the right amount has been entered by clicking on "Applies to me". Once reviewed you can click "Done with warnings" and return to your review. 

Warnings are there just to ensure that if the situation applies to you, you can go back and make any necessary modifications.
Errors, on the other hand, will prevent you from filing because something in your return is incorrect and the return will not be accepted by the Canada Revenue Agency.
