Question

I am wondering how I would know I am eligible for the Nova Scotia Low income Tax reduction?

I have not applied for this before and am just wondering how I would know I would be eligible? do I just apply and they will approve or deny it?

As per the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA)
The Nova Scotia affordable living tax credit (NSALTC) is a non-taxable quarterly payment to make life more affordable for low- and modest-income individuals and families. This credit is combined with the federal GST/HST credit.

You do not need to apply for the GST/HST credit or the NSALTC. The CRA will use the information from your return to determine if you are entitled to receive this credit.

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
