New for New Brunswick for 2019

The personal income levels used to calculate your New Brunswick tax have changed. The amounts for most provincial non-refundable tax credits and the New Brunswick low-income tax reduction have also changed.

The dividend tax credit rate for other than eligible dividends has changed. 

The New Brunswick tuition tax credit has been re-introduced for 2019 and later tax years. New Brunswick tuition fees paid for 2017 and 2018 must be reported on the 2019 return, and can be used in that year or carried forward to a future year. Amounts from 2017 and 2018 can only be claimed by the student and cannot be transferred to a supporting person.

New Brunswick benefits for individuals and families     

New Brunswick harmonized sales tax credit  

The New Brunswick harmonized sales tax credit (NBHSTC) is a non-taxable amount paid to help offset the increase in the harmonized sales tax for households with low and modest incomes. This amount is combined with the quarterly federal GST/HST credit payments.

You do not need to apply for the GST/HST credit or the New Brunswick harmonized sales tax credit. The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will use the information from your return to determine if you are entitled to receive the credits.

New Brunswick child tax benefit

The New Brunswick child tax benefit (NBCTB) is a non-taxable amount paid monthly to qualifying families with children under 18 years of age. The New Brunswick working income supplement is an additional amount paid to qualifying families that earned income and have children under 18 years of age. These benefits are combined with the Canada child benefit into one monthly payment.

The New Brunswick school supplement program is paid to help low-income families with the cost of back-to-school supplies for their children. This once-a-year payment is included with the July NBCTB payment.

You do not need to apply for these programs. The CRA will use the information from your Canada child benefits application to determine if you are entitled to the benefits.

File your return

To make sure you get your payments on time, you (and your spouse or common-law partner) need to file your 2019 income tax and benefit return(s) by April 30, 2020. The CRA will use the information from your return(s) to calculate the payments you are entitled to get from these programs.

The NBHSTC and the NBCTB are fully funded by the Province of New Brunswick. For more information about these programs, go to Province of New Brunswick or call the CRA at 1-800-387-1193.

Completing your New Brunswick form

You can download and print a copy of Form NB428, New Brunswick Tax and Credits, to calculate your New Brunswick tax and credits. Attach a completed copy of Form NB428 to your return.

Part A – New Brunswick non-refundable tax credits

The eligibility criteria and rules for claiming most of the New Brunswick non-refundable tax credits are the same as those for the federal non-refundable tax credits. However, the value and calculation of most New Brunswick non-refundable tax credits are different from the corresponding federal credits.

Newcomers to Canada and emigrants

If you reduced your claim for any of the amounts on lines 30000 to 30450, 31600, 31800, 32400, and 32600 of your return, you also need to reduce the corresponding amounts on lines 58040 to 58200, 58400, 58440, 58480, and 58640 of your Form NB428 in the same manner.

You can claim this amount if the rules are met for claiming the amount on line 30300 of your return and your spouse’s or common-law partner’s net income from line 23600 of their return (or the amount that it would be if they filed a return) is less than $9,588.

Line 58160 – Amount for an eligible dependant

You can claim this amount if the rules are met for claiming the amount on line 30400 of your return and your dependant’s net income from line 23600 of their return (or the amount that it would be if they filed a return) is less than $9,588.

• They were 18 years of age or older.
• They were dependent on you (or on you and others) because of an impairment in physical or mental functions.

You can claim an amount only if the dependant’s net income from line 23600 of their return (or the amount it would be if they filed a return) is less than $11,725.

If you had to make support payments for a child, you cannot claim an amount on line 58200 for that child unless both of the following conditions apply:

• You were separated from your spouse or common-law partner for only part of 2019 because of a breakdown in your relationship.
• You did not claim any support amounts paid to your spouse or common-law partner on line 22000 of your return.

• They were dependent on you because of an impairment in physical or mental functions, or they were your (or your spouse’s or common-law partner’s) parent or grandparent, born in 1954 or earlier.

If anyone (including you) claims an amount for a dependant, no one can claim an amount on line 58200 for that dependant.

New Brunswick seniors' home renovation tax credit

You may be eligible for this credit if you meet all of the following conditions at the end of the year:

• You were a resident of New Brunswick.

If someone who does not live with you or is not related to you paid for the qualifying home renovation to your principal residence, you can still claim the credit. You should obtain and keep the supporting documents.

Definitions

A family member includes a parent, step-parent, grandparent, in-law, sibling, spouse, common-law partner, aunt, uncle, great-aunt, great-uncle, child, step-child, grandchild, niece, and nephew.

• The deceased person was a family member of a senior or of a person who would have turned 65 years of age by December 31, 2019, and is otherwise eligible.

If you lived with, or expected by the end of 2021 to live with, a family member who, right before death, was a senior or who would have turned 65 years of age by December 31, 2019, and you are otherwise eligible, you can claim this credit on your return.

Were you bankrupt in 2019?

The New Brunswick seniors’ home renovation tax credit can be claimed on your pre- or post-bankruptcy return depending on when the eligible expenses were paid or became payable. If eligible expenses are claimed on more than one return, the total amount of expenses that can be claimed on all returns filed for the year cannot be more than $10,000 or the amount of eligible expenses paid, whichever is less.

How to claim this amount
