Buying a house in Toronto

[naharoni]

Hi,

I have been in Canada for the last 2.5 years and still waiting for my landed immigrant documents.
Since I've arrived, I paid the Canadian income taxes which were deducted from my pay slip.
I am planning to buy a condo soon and have already contributed twice for the RRSP plan and now would like to withdraw the money towards my down payment with no tax deduction.

However, I noticed that in order to take advantage of the HBP (Home Buyer Plan) benefit, I need to be a resident in Canada. Is that correct?
Is the fact that I am paying taxes and contributing to the RRSP enough to make me eligible for using this benefit?

Thanks, Naama

Isn't the Permanent Resident Card enough? What other landing documents do you need to purchase a home?

I forgot to mention that I am here on a working visa status
