Why does the Reimbursements received not show a figure after I have input all of my hotel information on the staycation tax credit page?

Hello 🙂

 

Thanks for your question ! Just want to make sure that I got the question right? Are you saying that when you put in all your hotel information , it doesnot reflect how much tax credit will be reimbursed for your staycation? Please confirm thanks

The Ontario Staycation Tax Credit is a refundable personal income tax credit for 2022 that can help families get back up to 20% of their eligible accommodation expenses in Ontario. Individuals can claim up to $1,000 and families can claim up to $2,000 to get back up to $200 as an individual or $400 as a family.

Eligible expenses include stays at hotels, motels, resorts, lodges, bed-and-breakfasts, cottages, campgrounds, and vacation rental properties. The credit doesn't apply to travel expenses such as car rentals, fuel, flights, groceries, parking, or admission fees, or expenses that are for school, work, or medical purposes.

To claim these amounts when filing your return, select your version of TurboTax, then follow the instructions provided:
