Subject: Annual Information Return: Housing Provider Reporting to Service Managers for the 2006 Fiscal Period, First Full Year of Benchmarks.
Legislation/Regulation Release 07-01
Operational
At the request of Service Managers, the Ministry has developed a new First Year Annual Information Return to be used for the reconciliation of subsidies paid to housing providers during their first year of benchmarks.
As required by the Social Housing Reform Act, 2000, the report shall be in a form authorized by the Minister and shall contain prescribed information and include the prescribed documents.
This new report has removed certain benchmarking items from the calculations which do not pertain to the first year of benchmarks. The forms are colour coded for ease of input and cells are linked wherever possible to eliminate the manual input of data.
A User Guide is also supplied to assist housing providers with the completion of the report. For Provincially Reformed Housing Projects, reports are due to Service Managers within five months after the housing providers fiscal year end.
Service Managers may, at their discretion, also use this report for their Federal unilateral and Public Housing Projects. The reporting period for the Federal projects is within four months of the housing providers fiscal year end.
The new report and the User Guide have been distributed to the Service Managers via e-mail on February 15, 2007.
Should you have any questions please contact Terry Pearce, Housing Finance Branch, by telephone 416-585-7349, by facsimile 416-585-6462 or by e-mail terry.pearce@ontario.ca
