    Yes, you may be eligible for deductions. Persons with disabilities are eligible for the Home Buyers Amount (HBA), even if they are not first-time home buyers. A person with a disability is defined as someone eligible for the disability tax credit. To be eligible, the disabled person must purchase the home for the purpose of living in a home that is more accessible or better suited to their needs. 

    Or you may also qualify for the Home Accesibility Tax Credit

     

    For more information, please see Turbotax webpage: Who Can Benefit From the Home Buyers' Amount

    and Home Tax Deductions  & Tax Credits for Canadian Homeowners
