This is the time of year when individuals move to a new location. You may be eligible to claim your moving expenses on your tax return.
You can claim eligible moving expenses if:
- you moved and established a new home to work or run a business at a new location; or
- you moved to be a student in full-time attendance in a post-secondary program at a university, college or other educational institution.
To qualify, your new home must be at least 40 kilometres (by the shortest usual public route) closer to your new work or school.
Follow the link below to determine if you are eligible and what paperwork you will need to provide at tax time.
If you have any questions, you can visit the CRA website or please call our office at 250-334-3797.
