If you wish to repay your mortgage in part or in full before its maturity date, you may be required to pay a penalty as indicated in the “Cost of Borrowing Disclosure Statement”, which you received when your mortgage was issued, modified, renewed or refinanced, whichever is latest.
There are two types of penalties: the penalty associated with the mortgage and the penalty associated with the promotion. The penalty associated with the mortgage is calculated according the procedure described in the “Cost of Borrowing Disclosure Statement”.
The penalty associated with the promotion is calculated according to the procedure described in the “Mortgage Promotion Agreement”, which could include, for example, cashbacks or other fees.
This calculator can estimate the amount of the penalty for you.
Before starting, make sure you have the following documents on hand:

Note:
The calculator cannot estimate the penalty if:

No penalty is applicable to a prepayment if:
- The prepayment amount is less than or equal to the mortgage prepayment privilege of 15%, as per the conditions described in your "Cost of Borrowing Disclosure Statement" (for a closed term loan)
- Your loan is open term.
