Which GST/HST return and method are you using?
If Then
You are completing a GST/HST return electronically. Your personal business information is pre-populated.
You are completing a personalized GST/HST return (GST34-2). Your personal business information is pre-printed.
You are completing a non-personalized GST/HST return (GST62).

You need to complete your personal business information. You will need to provide the following:

You can view your reporting period and due dates of expected returns in My Business Account or Represent a Client.

Builders of new or substantially-renovated housing

Certain builders must file their GST/HST returns using GST/HST NETFILE only. Other builders may have to file their GST/HST returns using another electronic method. To find out which method you must use, see GST/HST Info Sheet GI-099, Builders and Electronic Filing Requirements.

If you must use GST/HST NETFILE only, follow the instructions in GST/HST Info Sheet GI-118, Builders and GST/HST NETFILE, to complete your return instead of the instructions on this web page.

Note 

Filing a paper GST/HST return when required to file electronically, or using the incorrect electronic filing method, may result in processing delays, net tax assessments, penalty and interest charges, and the retention of other refunds or rebates that you may be expecting from us.

Enter your total sales and other revenues (line 101)

You are liable for the GST/HST you charge on property or services on the day you receive payment or the day the payment is due, whichever is earlier. We usually consider a payment to be due on the date you issue an invoice or the date specified in an agreement, whichever comes first. For more information, see Complete and file a return – Calculate the net tax.

Line 135 – Total GST/HST new housing rebates (amounts to be included on line 107) 

If you are a builder that paid or credited amounts of GST/HST new housing rebates to purchasers in the reporting period, enter the amounts paid or credited on line 135 of your electronic return. Also include this amount in the total you enter on line 107.

Note 

If you are filing your return using GST/HST NETFILE, the amount on line 135 will already be included in line 107 if you are a builder that had to complete Schedule B of the GST/HST NETFILE return. In this case, see GST/HST Info Sheet GI-118, Builders and GST/HST NETFILE, for more information.

You also have to send us the purchasers’ new housing rebate applications. You may do so electronically or you may submit paper copies of the rebate applications to the CRA. In any case, send the purchasers’ rebate applications no later than the day you file your return.

If you send the purchasers’ new housing rebate applications electronically, do not submit paper copies of the rebate applications.

Line 136 – Deduction for pension rebate amount (information to be included on line 107) 

Line 136 is to be completed by qualifying employers who file electronically. This line is for pension entity rebate amounts that are shared under an election made by the pension entity with the qualifying employer. The net tax deduction that the qualifying employer may make as a result of the election should be included on line 107 and line 136.

Note that line 136 is an information line and amounts entered on this line are not automatically included on line 107. Therefore, the qualifying employer should ensure that the same amount is included on line 107.

Note 

A pension entity that is entitled to a pension entity rebate can make the election to share a rebate amount with a qualifying employer by using Form RC4607, GST/HST Pension Entity Rebate Application and Election. The pension entity would report on line 111 any rebate amount that it does not share with the qualifying employer.

Line 103 – GST/HST collected or collectible

Which GST/HST return and method are you using? (Line 103 – GST/HST collected or collectible)
If Then

You are completing a GST/HST return using GST/HST TELEFILE.

Line 103: This line does not appear on GST/HST TELEFILE.

You are completing a GST/HST return using the regular method.

Line 103: Enter all GST/HST you were required to collect as well as all amounts of GST/HST collected on your supplies of property and services. Include the GST/HST you collected or were required to collect on any sale of real property (including the GST/HST on a self-supply of housing) and other capital property on both paid and unpaid invoices.

Do not include the tax on a taxable sale of real property if you are not required to collect the tax payable (unless you collected it by mistake).

If you provide the Ontario First Nations point-of-sale relief, the amount of HST collected or collectible on the supply must be included at the full 13% rate.

If you provide a point-of-sale rebate on qualifying items, report one of the following amounts:

  • total HST collected or collectible
  • only the federal part of the HST collected or collectible
You are completing a GST/HST return using the quick method of accounting or the special quick method of accounting for public service bodies.

Line 103:

  • Step 1: Multiply the total you entered on line 101 by the remittance rate that applies for that reporting period.
  • Step 2: Calculate the GST/HST you had to charge on taxable supplies that are not eligible.
  • Step 3: Add the amounts from Step 1 and Step 2 and enter the result on line 103.

Line 104 – Adjustments to be added to the net tax

Which GST/HST return and method are you using? (Line 104 – Adjustment to be added to the net tax)
If Then

You are completing a GST/HST return using GST/HST TELEFILE.

Line 104: This line does not appear on GST/HST TELEFILE.

You are completing a GST/HST return electronically or by paper.

Line 104: Complete this line only if you have to make adjustments to increase the amount of your net tax for the reporting period. Enter the total of all adjustments. For example:

  • If you wrote off the GST/HST amount of any bad debts on a previous return, and then recovered some or all of those debts, add the amount of the GST/HST you have recovered.
  • If you have claimed 100% ITCs for lease payments for a passenger vehicle during the year, and these lease payments are more than the maximum lease costs that are deductible under the Income Tax Act, once a year you have to add the amount of the ITCs over-claimed on line 104. The maximum lease cost is $800 per month (this amount does not include federal or provincial taxes). Although you are allowed to claim 100% ITCs for lease payments greater than $800 during the year, you have to pay back the ITCs claimed for the portion of lease payments that are greater than $800 per month.
  • If you have claimed 100% ITCs for meal and entertainment expenses during the year, once a year you have to add 50% (or 20% for long-haul truck drivers) of those credits to your net tax. For more information, see Meal and entertainment expenses.

Bad debt recovery

If you claimed a bad debt adjustment on line 107 and you later receive a payment towards that debt, you have to make an adjustment in your line 104 calculation (or line 105 if you are filing using GST/HST TELEFILE) for the reporting period in which the amount is recovered. Do not adjust the return in which you originally claimed the bad debt adjustment.

Use the following formula to calculate this tax adjustment:

A × B ÷ C

where:

A is the amount of the bad debt you recovered

B is the GST/HST payable for the supply to which the bad debt relates

C is the total amount of the sale, including GST/HST and applicable PST

Example

You made a credit sale of $2,260, including $100 GST and $160 PST. The amount later proved to be uncollectible and you wrote it off as a bad debt. You recovered $100 GST as a tax adjustment on line 107 of your GST/HST return (or line 108 if you used GST/HST TELEFILE). Later that year, you receive a payment of $400 towards the debt. You now have to include GST of $17.70 as a tax adjustment on line 104 (or line 105 if using GST/HST TELEFILE).

Tax adjustment
= $400 × $100 ÷ $2,260
= $17.70

Line 105 – Total GST/HST and adjustments for the period

If you are completing a GST/HST return electronically, line 105 will be automatically calculated based on the information you provided for lines 103 and 104.

If you file a paper return or are using GST/HST TELEFILE, add line 103 and line 104, and enter the result on line 105. Also, enter this amount on the return portion (Part 2) that you will send to us.

If you provide the Ontario First Nations point-of-sale relief, the amount of HST collected or collectible on the supply must be included in the line 105 calculation at the full 13% rate.

If you provide a point-of-sale rebate of the provincial part of the HST for qualifying items purchased in a participating province, report one of the following amounts:

Line 106 – GST/HST paid or payable (ITCs)

Which GST/HST return and method are you using? (Line 106 – GST/HST paid or payable (ITCs))
If Then

You are completing a GST/HST return using GST/HST TELEFILE.

Line 106: This line does not appear on GST/HST TELEFILE.

You are completing a GST/HST return using the regular method.

Line 106: Enter eligible ITCs for the GST/HST paid or payable on the value of property and services you acquired, imported, or brought into a participating province to the extent they are for consumption, use, or supply in the course of your commercial activities. Enter the total of all ITCs for the reporting period. Include any ITCs you did not claim in an earlier reporting period, provided the time limit for claiming the ITCs has not expired. For more information, see Input tax credits.

You are completing a GST/HST return using the quick method of accounting or the special quick method of accounting for public service bodies.

Line 106: You cannot claim ITCs for your operating expenses.

You may be eligible to claim ITCs for certain purchases, such as the following:

  • purchases of land
  • purchases for which you can claim a capital cost allowance for income tax purposes (for example, computers, vehicles, and other large equipment and machinery)

For more information, see Calculating your net tax using the quick method or How do you use the special quick method to calculate your net tax (2. Determine if you can claim ITCs).

Line 107 – Adjustments to be deducted when determining the net tax

Which GST/HST return and method are you using? ( Line 107 – Adjustments to be deducted when determining the net tax)
If Then

You are completing a GST/HST return using GST/HST TELEFILE.

Line 107: This line does not appear on GST/HST TELEFILE.

You are completing a GST/HST return using the regular method.

Line 107: Complete this line if you have adjustments that decrease the amount of your net tax for the reporting period. Enter the total of all adjustments. For example, you can claim the amount of any GST/HST on bad debts you write off if you have previously accounted for the full amount of the GST/HST on the supplies that resulted in those debts, and if you have remitted any net tax owing. You can also make an adjustment if you are a participating employer of a pension plan that made an election with a pension entity to share a pension rebate amount.

You can make an adjustment on line 107 for the following amounts you paid or credited a purchaser:

Bad debt

Occasionally, you may make a credit sale that becomes uncollectible and you write off the uncollectible amount in your records as a bad debt.

If the bad debt is part of an amount that you have already included on your GST/HST return and you remitted that amount, you can recover the GST/HST as a tax adjustment on line 107 (or line 108 if you are filing using GST/HST TELEFILE). You have to make the tax adjustment in a reporting period that is within 4 years of the reporting period in which you wrote off the bad debt in your records. Do not adjust the return in which you originally reported the GST/HST on the sale.

The debt has to be written off as a bad debt in your records, and you have to deal with the person at arm's length.

Use the following formula to calculate the tax adjustment:

A × (B ÷ C)

A is the GST/HST payable on the sale.

B is the total unpaid amount that was written off as a bad debt, including GST/HST and applicable provincial sales taxes (PST).

C is the total amount of the sale, including GST/HST and applicable PST.

Example

You receive a partial payment of $800 towards a credit sale of $1,130, including $50 GST and $80 PST. The remaining unpaid balance of $330 later proves to be uncollectible and you write it off as a bad debt. You can recover GST of $14.60 as a tax adjustment on line 107 of your GST/HST return (or line 108 if you are filing using GST/HST TELEFILE).

Tax adjustment
= $50 × ($330 ÷ $1,130)
= $14.60
You are completing a GST/HST return using the quick method of accounting.

Line 107: If you are entitled to the 1% credit on the first $30,000 of your eligible supplies, enter the amount of the credit on line 107. Also enter the total of any adjustments to be deducted when determining the net tax for the reporting period (for example, the GST/HST included in a bad debt from supplies that are not eligible for the quick method calculation).

For more information, see Calculating your net tax using the quick method.

Note 

If you had to enter an amount on line 135 or line 136 , you also have to include that amount in the total you enter on line 107. These amounts are not automatically included in line 107, unless you are a builder that had to complete Schedule B of the GST/HST NETFILE return. In this case, see GST/HST Info Sheet GI-118, Builders and GST/HST NETFILE, for more information.

Line 108 – Total ITCs and adjustments

If you are completing a GST/HST return electronically, line 108 will be automatically calculated based on the information you provided for lines 106 and 107.

If you file a paper return or are using GST/HST TELEFILE, add line 106 and line 107, and enter the result on line 108. Also, enter this amount on the return portion (Part 2) that you will send to us.

If you provide a point-of-sale rebate of the provincial part of the HST for qualifying items, report the amount you paid or credited if you included the total HST collected or collectible (for example, 13% in Ontario) on line 103.

Line 109 – Net tax

If you are completing a GST/HST return electronically (or using GST/HST TELEFILE), line 109 will be automatically calculated based on the information you provided to complete the other lines.

If you file a paper return, subtract line 108 from line 105 and enter the amount on line 109. This is your net tax. Also, enter this amount on the return portion (Part 2) that you will send to us.

If the amount entered is negative (total ITCs and adjustments are more than the total GST/HST and adjustments), put a minus sign (–) in the box to the left of the amount.

If you file your return late and line 109 shows an amount owing, we will charge you a penalty and interest on the amount, minus any instalments you have already paid.

Enter other credits (lines 110, 111, 112, and 113 A)

Line 110 – Instalment and other annual filer payments

Enter the total amount of the quarterly instalments you paid in the year. If you file a paper return, enter this amount on the return portion (Part 2) that you will send to us. For more information, see Remit (pay) the GST/HST by instalments.

If you are an individual with business income for income tax purposes and have a December 31 fiscal year-end, your return due date is June 15. However, your net tax remittance is due April 30. If you remitted your net tax and you are now filing your GST/HST return, add the amount of your remittance to the instalments you made, if any, and enter the total on line 110.

Do not use this line to report the ITCs or refunds you expect to receive.

Line 111 – Rebates

Enter the total amount of the rebate(s) you are claiming. If you file a paper return, enter this amount on the return portion (Part 2) that you will send to us.
