Home Renovation Tax Credit
July 10, 2025
Clearing trees and brush from a cottage
lot
CRA provides Views that aren't accessibly
without payment to a service like Carswell or
CCH.
Please note that the following document,
although believed to be correct at the time of issue,
may not represent the current position of the
CRA.
Prenez note que ce document, bien
qu'exact au moment émis, peut ne pas représenter la
position actuelle de l'ARC.
PRINCIPAL
ISSUES: Does the cost of clearing trees and brush from a
cottage lot qualify for the home renovation tax credit
(HRTC)?
POSITION: On its own, the clearing of
trees would not qualify for the HRTC. However, if the
clearing relates to a renovation project of an enduring
nature that is integral to the dwelling, the costs of
clearing the lot will qualify for the
HRTC.
REASONS: Based on the 2009 budget
documents, the renovation must pertain to land which
forms part of a principal residence, and relates to a
renovation project which is of an enduring nature and is
integral to the eligible dwelling.
