Sales Taxes -> GST/HST ->Filing Your Return -> Provincial tax credits paid with GST/HST creditProvincial Tax Credits Paid in Combination With the GST-HST CreditSome provinces have tax-free (non-taxable) credits/payments which are paid in combination with the GST-HST credit. Some of them are paid quarterly, and others are paid annually. The credits provided by provinces are: - Alberta climate leadership adjustment rebate - BC: - HST credit (BCHSTC) - Discontinued with reintroduction of PST - Low income climate action tax credit (BCLICATC - New Brunswick harmonized sales tax credit (NBHSTC) - Newfoundland and Labrador: - HST credit (NLHSTC) - Seniors' Benefit (NLSB) - Nova Scotia affordable living tax credit (NSALTC) - Ontario sales tax credit (OSTC) - Saskatchewan low-income tax credit (SLITC) To receive these credits, you or your spouse must apply for the GST-HST credit on the tax return for the preceding tax year. This makes it important to file a tax return, even if there is no income to report.

Tax tip: File a tax return even if you don't have taxable income.
