Address different than spouse's (family head)If the spouse lives at a different address from the family head's (e. g. a nursing home), then report the change of address, as follows;
In the file of a spouse, in the "Identification" section of the left-side menu in the " Interview " tab, for the line "Do you have the same address as your spouse?", three options are available:
1. If you answer "YES" (or leave the field blank) and click on "Next" at the bottom of the page, the address and phone number of the family head will also be used for the spouse.
2. If you answer "NO" and click on "Next" at the bottom of the page, in the page entitled "Current address", indicate the postal address and indicate the name of the person to the care of which you want the mail to be sent. For the second part of this page "Information about your residence", answer the three questions, the second being important. You can also enter the phone number of your residence.
3. If you answer "Yes, but different phone #" and click on "Next" at the bottom of the page, the address of the family head will be used for the spouse. However, a separate page entitled "Telephone number" will be available in this spouse's interview.
Whether you answer "YES" or "NO" does not have any tax implication in the program.
However, in some provinces, there can be tax implications for having a separate residence from your spouse's. You may report the information regarding separate residences for tax purposes in the "Province's tax and credits" section
