Land Transfer Tax - Additional Information Collection
Land Transfer Tax (LTT) Additional Information Collection — January 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019
On April 24, 2017, the Province began collecting additional information from persons who purchase or acquire at least one and not more than six single family residences, or agricultural land, through the Prescribed Information for the Purposes of Section 5.0.1 Form (Form). To assist taxpayers, the Ministry of Finance provided a transition period from April 24 to May 5, 2017, where any deficiencies relating to the Form would not incur penalties. Effective May 6, 2017 the completion of the Form became mandatory.
This report is based on the additional information data (referenced above) for properties registered in the Province and is an addition to previously released information by the Province. The tables below are based on registered properties reported to the Ministry between January 1, 2019 and March 31, 2019 and include a breakdown based on transactions in the Greater Golden Horseshoe Region (GGH), outside of the GGH, and Ontario as a whole.
Future releases will reflect a quarterly reporting period and will be published online by the Ministry.
Note: This analysis cannot be used to derive the amount of Non-Resident Speculation Tax (NRST) collected or transactions subject to the NRST, as some foreign transactions may have been grandparented or exempt from the NRST.

Overall, out of the 63,829 transactions in Ontario, approximately 1.8 per cent involved at least one foreign entity.

For example, the assumption of any liabilities (e.g. a mortgage), or outstanding encumbrances on the land (e.g. lien on the property) may also be included in the “value of the consideration”. |
