A local radio news station announced that over 13000 applications were received in the first month since the application launch on October 1st. Apparently some of the rebate checks have already been mailed out.

Just thought I would post for those who are waiting or about to apply. I received my acknowledgment letter for the Eco-Program five weeks to the day after I mailed it. I received the rebate in a total six and a half weeks. This was on par with the Provincial Program. Just in time for X-mas
shopping.

Hope others are doing as well!

Got mine as well few days back. Feels good to get about 75% of GST back

I believe some Canadian car dealerships/brokers are buying hybrids from the US and selling them in Canada for a small premium (usually about $1000). Since they bring in the car as an inter-dealership transfer, the first "sale" will be made in Canada. Has anyone bought such a car and been successful in getting the eco-rebate? Technically, I would think that such cars should still be eligible, as all Canadian Camry Hybrids come from the US anyway.
