Context
In 2015, the Québec Government decided to offer seniors a grant to help offset significant municipal tax increases. The aim of the grant is to help financially taxpayers who are affected by a significant increase in the value of their residence. As of January 1, 2016, municipalities must inform owners of a residential assessment unit consisting of only one dwelling, that they may be eligible for a potential grant. This grant is given if there is a large increase in the value of a residence.
How will the grant be established?
For more information about the grant, see the instructions given on form TP-1029.TM-V (2019-11), Grant for Seniors to Offset a Municipal Tax Increase.
