The Estate Tax Rebate Acts of Alberta and Saskatchewan provide for a rebate of the full provincial share of estate tax on property of an estate situate in the rebating province, if the deceased was domiciled in the province at death, or being domiciled elsewhere in Canada, met certain residence qualifications.

Where a deceased person has property in both Alberta and Saskatchewan, is domiciled in either province but unable to meet the residence qualification in the other province, the rebate of estate tax is restricted to property in the province of domicile, although the share of estate tax attributable to property in the other province is received by that province under the Federal-Provincial Fiscal Arrangements Act. This Act will authorize a reciprocal agreement whereby each province may pay additional estate tax rebates to estates of its own domiciliaries with respect to property situated in the other province. 2.
