Northern Affairs Tax Grants for Seniors by JANE E. GREER Since 1980, the On- tario Government through the Ministry of Revenue has been pro- viding Property. and Sales Tax Grants to eli- gible seniors as an at- tempt to help these indi- viduals cope with the rising costs of living. The Property Tax Grant is a grant of up to $500 per household pro- vided by the Govern- ment to help offset the municipal and_ school taxes paid annually by persons 65 years of age and over who own their own homes. For seniors who rent their accomo- dation the Property Tax Grant takes the form ofa - subsidy that equals 20 per cent of the rent paid, up to a maximum level of $500. The Sales Tax Grant is a grant of $50 provided (without application) to seniors to help offset the provincial sales taxes paid annually. The Ontario Property and Sales Tax Grants are provided to eligible seniors regardless of the amount of their annual income. However, as the Ontario .- Government provides a minimum an- nual accommodation subsidy for residents of nursing homes, homes for the aged, chronic care facilities, charitable institutions, homes for special care or similar institutions, these in- dividuals do not qualify for the Ontario Property Tax Grant. Applications for the Property Tax Grant are now being mailed to individuals who were either 65 years of age or who become 65 years of age as of July 1984. Individuals who were 65 years of agé or older in 1983 will have already received their first in- stalment of their proper- ty tax grant and upon completing this applica- tion will receive the balance of the payment up to the maximum of $500. For those indivi- duals. who turned 65 years of age in 1984 continued on page 9 Terrace Bay Recreation News Squash and Racquetball Tournament The duties have been set for the annual squash and racquetball tournament.
