Ontario HST rebate cheques are on their way, just in time for the Holidays! The second wave of Ontario HST cheques, promised by the Ontario government, will begin going out today, HST Ontario has learned.

From today through December 17th qualifying Ontario residents will begin receiving their 2nd HST rebate in the mail or by direct deposit.

The first HST cheques were sent out in June 2010. The third Ontario Sales Tax Transition Benefit is expect to arrive in June 2011.

How do you get an HST rebate?

If you qualify for the Harmonized Sales Tax rebate, you don’t have to do anything. The CRA administers the Ontario Sales Tax Transition Benefit (HST Rebate) to Ontario residents who have filed their 2009 income tax return.

Happy Holidays!
