Prepare for Ontario tax credit applications without retyping your personal details

Every Ontario tax credit, rebate, and benefit application — from the Ontario Trillium Benefit to the Senior Homeowners' Property Tax Grant — asks for the same name, date of birth, and address. This guide is an example of storing those repeating identity fields in hivi once.

Official form and source

Start from the official Ontario source and always use current versions — programs and eligibility change:

• Service page: Tax credits and benefits for people — ontario.ca

What these applications have in common

Ontario personal income tax credits are claimed on schedules filed with your CRA return, while some rebates and grants have separate applications. Regardless of channel, the personal identity section — name, date of birth, address — is the same repeating block that hivi can autofill.

Before you start: what to gather

• Your name, date of birth, and current address.
• Contact details.
• Program-specific information: income figures, property addresses, or household details depending on the credit.

Confirm which credits you qualify for and the current eligibility requirements on ontario.ca.

How hivi makes it faster

1. Store your personal details once. Save your name, date of birth, and address in hivi.
2. Autofill identity fields across all credit applications. Use the hivi Chrome extension on any online portal, or fill PDFs from your saved profile inside hivi.
3. Enter program-specific data yourself — income amounts and financial details are year-specific.
4. Submit each application through CRA, tax software, or the relevant ministry portal.

Why do it in hivi

The same personal identity block appears at the top of every Ontario tax credit schedule, rebate form, and government benefit application. Stored once in hivi — in Canada, with self-hosted AI — each form starts mostly filled.
