Repaying your RRSP+ for an HBP you took out with another financial institution lets you benefit from 30%[1] in tax credits, even if it's an HBP repayment.
*The tax credits granted to the shareholders of the Fonds are 15% at the federal level and 15% at the provincial level. Tax credits are capped at $1,500 per tax year, which corresponds to purchases of Fonds de solidarité FTQ shares having a value of $5,000.
