SearchCan I live in my depreciated rental?

(updated on Friday, September 11th 2009)
Our Experts Answer:
Moving into a property that has been depreciated triggers a "deemed disposal" of the property. This typically results in the recovery of depreciation that has been claimed. If you don't want to depreciate a property you must make a non-revocable written election to the tax department. Believe it or not but if you haven't elected not to depreciate and simply have failed to depreciate IRD can require you to recover the depreciation you should have claimed!
