We had an addition built onto our house & from what I can find on-line, we can claim the GST paid. Where do I enter this in Turbo Tax?

You do not enter this into your T1 unless it specifically relates to renovations for the elderly or handicapped improved access.  If you are looking for a GST rebate on new construction or substantial renovation of a home, you will need to apply for it using one of these forms:

You will need to fill in all of the information, and send all invoices relating to your expenses, and it will take approx 4-6 months to get an answer or a refund back.  Read the forms carefully.
