The Satellite Internet Service Rebate program is expanding once again to help more Nova Scotians get access to internet service faster. The program will accept applications from any resident or business owner who currently does not have access to wired or wireless internet service.
The rebate covers the one-time costs for eligible homes and businesses to set up satellite internet, including hardware, shipping, installation and tax, up to a maximum of $1,000.
Nova Scotians interested in the rebate should confirm they are eligible before purchasing satellite equipment. They can do so by visiting: https://internet.buildns.ca/satellite. Once people confirm eligibility and purchase the satellite equipment and service, they can submit applications electronically or by mail.
