Hello everyone,
I tried searching for this topic but couldnt seem to find a similar post. My dad is a newcomer who got his PR in 2024 under parent/grand parent sponsorship (sponsored by me). I am doing his tax for 2024. I am wondering if he would be eligible for GST/HST credit if he doesnt make any money in 2024? I understand that for parent/grand parent sponsorship, the sponsor is supposed to take care of their finance for 20 years so not sure if GST/HST falls under the finance category?
Anyone has experience in this area? Thanks a lot!
