Vehicle owners whose mobility is permanently impaired may qualify for a 25 per cent discount off the cost of Basic Autoplan.
This disability discount is available to a vehicle’s registered owner, joint owner or lessee who’s 16 years of age or older and is a “person with disabilities” as defined in the Motor Fuel Tax Act.
Once you are eligible for the Provincial Fuel Tax Rebate, take the following to your local Autoplan broker to apply for the disability discount:
- registration letter, or your Fuel Tax Refund Program for Persons with Disabilities FDR account number (Fuel Disability Refund nnnn-nnnn) provided to you by the Ministry of Finance,
- owner’s certificate of insurance, and
- vehicle license documents.
You can check to see if you’re eligible to receive the disability discount retroactively. To apply for the retroactive discount, you must provide your Autoplan broker with a confirmation letter from the Ministry of Finance stating you’re registered for the Fuel Tax Refund Program for Persons with Disabilities and the effective date of your qualification in the program. Upon receiving this information, they will adjust your Autoplan premiums if applicable and send you a refund for the backdated disability discount.
