📌 CAF MEMBERS: DON’T MISS THIS NON-TAXABLE RELOCATION BENEFIT

Did the interest rate on your new mortgage increase after you sold your home and discharged your previous mortgage?

Under CAFRD 8.3.12, eligible members may claim the Mortgage Interest Differential from the Core Account, up to a maximum of $5,000.

Even better: this is a non-taxable benefit.

The calculation considers:

• The interest rate on your new mortgage
• The interest rate on your discharged mortgage
• The months remaining on your discharged mortgage
• The applicable mortgage principal

This benefit can be easily overlooked. Remember to include it when completing your relocation claims.

💡 CAF Mortgage Tip

If you receive a VAC lump-sum payment and use it to make a lump-sum payment on your mortgage, you can ask your lender if they’ll reamortize your mortgage.

If they allow it, your payments can be recalculated based on your original amortization period and your new, lower mortgage balance. This could reduce your required mortgage payments and improve your cash flow.

Not all lenders offer this option, so it’s worth asking before making your lump-sum payment.

💰 CAF Relocation Tip: Mortgage Interest Differential (CAF RD 8.3.12)

If your new mortgage rate is higher than the rate on the mortgage you paid out because of a CAF relocation, you may be eligible for up to $5,000 from your Core Account.

The reimbursement is calculated using:

((A − B) ÷ 100) × (C ÷ 12) × D

Where:
• A = Interest rate on your new mortgage
• B = Interest rate on your discharged mortgage
• C = Number of months remaining on your discharged mortgage term
• D = The lesser of:

The remaining principal on your discharged mortgage, or

The principal on your new mortgage

📄 To support your claim, you'll typically need:
• Your mortgage payout statement from your origin home.
• Your mortgage commitment for your destination home.

These documents are usually included in your legal closing package.

Reference: CAF Relocation Directive 8.3.12 – Mortgage Interest Differential (maximum reimbursement of $5,000from the Core Account).

✔ Expert mortgage advice

Is your mortgage coming up for renewal… and you’re also expecting a posting message? 👀

For many CAF families, posting season and mortgage renewals seem to show up at the exact same time.

Before you automatically sign your lender’s renewal offer, it might be worth taking a closer look at your options — especially if a move could be coming.

There may be ways to set up your mortgage so it works with your posting, not against it.

At Defence Mortgage Solutions, we work with military members every day and understand the challenges that come with renewals, relocations, and the uncertainty of posting season.

If your mortgage is coming up for renewal this year, let’s chat and make sure you’re set up for whatever comes next.

🏡 Hidden Costs of Buying a Home — Do You Know What’s Covered?

When buying a home, most people focus on the down payment, but there are several other costs that can come up along the way.

Some common hidden costs include:
• Legal fees
• Home inspection
• Appraisal fees
• Land transfer/registration fees
• Property tax adjustments
• Moving expenses

If your move is related to a relocation, some of these costs may be covered through your relocation benefits.

At Defence Mortgage Solutions, we regularly work with military members and understand which expenses may be reimbursed through your relocation program and how to structure your purchase accordingly.

That means fewer surprises and better planning during your move.

📩 If you're relocating and planning to buy, reach out — we’re here to help make the process smoother.

Posting Season Is Coming — Are You Ready?

Posting season is just around the corner, and we know how fast things can move. Whether you’ve received your message or you’re preparing for the possibility, having the right team in place can make all the difference.

A military move isn’t the same as a typical relocation. Tight timelines, sale-and-purchase coordination, and cross-country logistics require professionals who understand the process inside and out.

At Defence Mortgage Solutions, we work alongside experienced REALTORS® and lawyers who understand military moves and the unique challenges that come with them. When your mortgage broker, realtor, and lawyer are aligned and experienced in postings, you benefit from:

✔️ Smoother timelines
✔️ Fewer surprises
✔️ Clear communication
✔️ Confidence in every step

This isn’t just about securing a mortgage — it’s about building the right team to support your move from start to finish.

If posting season is on your radar, let’s start the conversation early and make sure you’re set up for success.
