Part 1 - Flipped property
A flipped property is a housing unit (including a rental property) located in
Canada or a right to acquire a housing unit located in Canada that you owned
or held for less than 365 consecutive days before its disposition (12-month
holding period).
A property is not considered a flipped property if, before the disposition,
it was considered to be inventory or was owned or held for 365 or more
consecutive days, or if the disposition occurred due to, or in anticipation
of, certain life events as listed at line 17906 on page 2.
If you disposed of a flipped property, the resulting gain on the disposition
is taxable as business income and not as a capital gain. To report this
transaction, complete Form T2125, Statement of Business or Professional
Activities.
For more information about property flipping, go to canada.ca/cra-property-
flipping.
Line 17905: Did you dispose of a housing unit, or a right to acquire a
housing unit, located in Canada (including a rental property) that was not
considered inventory and was owned for less than 365 consecutive days before
the disposition? Yes or No ^
If you ticked "no", the housing unit is not considered a flipped property. If
the property is capital property (such as a cottage or rental property) and
you held it for investment or personal use, any gain from the disposition of
the property is taxable as a capital gain. Complete Part 3 on the next page
to report the disposition.
If you ticked "yes", continue at line 17906 on the next page.
5000-S3 (Page 2 of 4)
Part 1 - Flipped property (continued)
Was the disposition due to, or in anticipation of, any of the following life
events? (Tick the boxes that apply, if any.)
Line 17906:
Box 1: the death of the taxpayer or a related person ^
Box 2: a related person joining the taxpayer's household or the taxpayer
joining a related person's household (for example, birth of a child,
adoption, or care of an elderly parent) ^
Box 3: the breakdown of a marriage or common-law partnership where the
taxpayer had been living separate and apart from their spouse or common-law
partner for at least 90 days before the disposition ^
Box 4: a threat to the personal safety of the taxpayer or a related person
(for example, domestic violence) ^
Box 5: a serious disability or illness of the taxpayer or a related person ^
Box 6: the eligible relocation of the taxpayer or their spouse or common-law
partner where the taxpayer's new home (including area code): is at least 40
kilometres closer to the new work (including area code): location or school
(generally, an eligible relocation allows the taxpayer to carry on business,
be employed, or attend full-time post-secondary education) ^
Box 7: the involuntary termination of employment of the taxpayer or their
spouse or common-law partner ^
Box 8: the insolvency of the taxpayer (for example, due to an accumulation of
debt) ^
Box 9: the destruction or expropriation of the taxpayer's property (for
example, when the property is destroyed due to natural or man-made disaster)
^
If any of the life events above apply to you, the housing unit is not
considered a flipped property. The disposition of this property is included
in income as a taxable capital gain. Complete Part 2 if you are claiming the
principal residence exemption. If you are not claiming the principal
residence exemption, complete Part 3 on the next page to report the
disposition. For more information, go to canada.ca/real-estate-income.
If none of the life events above apply to you, the housing unit is considered
a flipped property and the gain is taxable as business income. To report this
transaction, complete Form T2125. For more information, go to
canada.ca/taxes-business-income or see Guide T4002, Self-employed Business,
Professional, Commission, Farming, and Fishing Income.
Part 2 - Principal residence
Complete Form T2091(IND), Designation of a Property as a Principal Residence
by an Individual (Other than a Personal Trust), or Form T1255, Designation of
a Property as a Principal Residence by the Legal Representative of a Deceased
Individual, whichever applies, to designate a property as your principal
residence.
A deemed disposition occurs when you are considered to have disposed of
property even though you did not sell it. For example, a deemed disposition
may occur when you change how you use your principal residence, such as when
you change all or part of your principal residence to a rental or business
operation, or change your rental or business operation to your principal
residence. If this is the case, you may need to complete Form T2091(IND) or
Form T1255, whichever applies. For more information, see Income Tax Folio S1-
F3-C2, Principal Residence.
Tick the box that applies to your designation of the property described on
Form T2091(IND) or Form T1255:
Line 17900:
Box 1: I designate the property as my principal residence for all of the
years that I owned it or for all of the years that I owned it except one
year. ^
Box 2: I designate the property as my principal residence for some but not
all of the years that I owned it. ^
Box 3: I designate the properties as my principal residences for some or all
of the years that I owned them. ^
If either of the following conditions apply to you, see Income Tax Folio S1-
F3-C2, Principal Residence:
- You were not a resident of Canada for the entire time you owned the
designated property. Your period of non-residence may reduce or eliminate the
amount of the principal residence exemption
- There is no gain because you have transferred a housing unit to your spouse
or common-law partner, or to a spousal trust
