Hello Everyone. Its tax time and I've noticed that many people and tax preparers do not include the disability tax credit on tax returns. If you are unable to work due to a disability you may be able to file for this credit.
For a while it was very hard to get and many people that included it were cut off for no reason. However in the last 5yrs or it has not been as bad to get it through.
A doc must file out the form (T2201) and once approved it is usually good for 5 yrs. It has an additional benefit in that any unused portion can be transferred to a spouse.
The Mood Disorders Society of Cda has an excellent summary, explanation and includes exactly how your doc must fill it out. www.mooddisorderscanada.ca then click on consumer&family support, then click on more information . It can be worth over $1500 if you qualify. Take Care. paul m
