Caveats & assumptions

This is an estimate. Actual ITCs depend on your eligible expenses; the comparison here assumes zero ITCs under the Regular Method. The 1% credit applies only on the first $30,000 of HST-included sales in a fiscal year.

Service-provider rates only (CRA RC4058). Goods sellers and mixed businesses use a different table — that’s a v2 feature.

Confirm with your accountant or the CRA before electing.

Track where you actually stand

The Quick Method only matters once you hit $30,000. HST Hero tracks your rolling 12-month total so you know exactly when that clock starts.
