You can claim your rent you paid if you are eligible for the Ontario Trillium benefit and meet the certain criteria otherwise, you are not able to claim the rental statement rent you have paid. For more information, please see our TurboTax article: Can I claim a tax deduction for my rent?

If you live in Ontario, you may qualify for the Ontario Energy and Property Tax Credit (OEPTC), that is a part of the Ontario Trillium Benefit. Though we technically are not claiming rent on our taxes, the amount of rent, property taxes, or long term housing costs paid by you throughout the year is used to help calculate your benefit. The tax credit is based on your adjusted family net income and is reduced when your income exceeds certain amounts based on your family situation. You may qualify for either the Energy Credit portion, the Property Tax Credit portion, or both. Even students in residence may be eligible for the credit!
