Line 219 – Moving expensesThe following information will help you determine the moving expenses deduction you can claim.
Frequently asked questionsThis year I moved from Quebec to Alberta to take up a new job. I am going to claim moving expenses. I moved out of my apartment and bought a house. I paid legal fees when I bought the new house. Can I deduct these on my return as well? You can claim legal fees for a purchase of a new home as well as taxes paid (other than GST/HST or property taxes) for the transfer of or registration of the title to a new home only if your old residence is sold as a result of the move. Since you did not sell an old residence when you moved, you cannot claim the legal fees or taxes paid for the purchase of the new home. You can claim the cost of cancelling a lease for your old residence, except any rental payment for the period during which you occupied the residence. Forms and publications
