Frequently Asked Questions
Can landlords claim for a new kitchen?
Generally no—a new kitchen is considered a capital improvement, not a repair. However, replacing individual appliances or repairing kitchen units may be deductible.
Do I need to register with the RTB to claim mortgage interest?
Yes, you must be registered with the Residential Tenancies Board to claim mortgage interest relief. If you're not registered, you're losing out on your biggest potential deduction.
Can landlords go back and claim missed deductions?
Yes, you can amend your tax returns for up to four years. If you've missed deductions in previous years, these can be reviewed and claimed.
What records do landlords need to keep for tax deductions?
Keep all receipts, invoices, and bank statements for at least six years. Revenue may request documentation to support your deductions.
