SOLIDARITY TAX CREDIT

SOLIDARITY TAX CREDIT

There are three components to the solidarity tax credit:

• the QST component (which includes a basic amount, a spousal amount and an additional amount for a person who lived alone all year);

• the housing component;

• the component for individuals living in a northern village (see the definition below).

You may be eligible for the tax credit for the period from July 2025 to June 2026 if you met the requirements on December 31, 2024. See Schedule D for the full list of requirements and definitions of key terms.

Completing Schedule D is the only way to make sure that you receive the full amount of each component of the credit. If you are eligible but do not file Schedule D, you will only receive the basic amount of the QST component and the spousal amount, if applicable.
