The last day to submit an application for the Canada Greener Homes Loan is October 1, 2025.

If you’ve been waiting to replace drafty windows or finally upgrade that old door, this is your last call to leverage the federal, interest-free Canada Greener Homes Loan. CMHC confirms the portal is closing to new applications soon—so here’s what’s changing, what’s still available, and how Verdun can help you keep your project moving with flexible financing even if you miss the loan cutoff.

Quick answers homeowners are searching for

Is the Greener Homes Loan ending?

Yes—applications close on October 1, 2025. CMHC notes that applications received before the cutoff are reviewed in order, subject to funding.

“Submitting an application does not guarantee approval or funding.”

When does the Greener Homes Loan end?

There’s no separate “end date” after the portal closes—the key date is October 1, 2025 for new applications. Submitting doesn’t guarantee approval; funding is limited.

What about the Greener Homes Grant?

The Canada Greener Homes Grant stopped taking new applicants in 2024. Existing participants must follow federal guidance to complete their journey and request a grant.

What the Greener Homes Loan covers (and key rules)

  • Interest-free financing up to $40,000 with a 10-year repayment term for eligible retrofits—including high-efficiency windows and doors.
  • Work must be recommended by an energy advisor and must not have started before you apply. Review eligibility on the CMHC site.

Heads up!

Submitting an application does not guarantee approval or funding.

How to move fast (before October 1)

  1. Have a Verdun order or detailed quote in place.
  2. Book your pre-retrofit energy audit immediately. Your advisor’s evaluation file must be in the federal system before you can access the loan portal.
  3. Apply online before October 1, 2025. Start from the Canada Greener Homes Loan page and have your energy evaluation report and reference number ready.
