Child care allowance - QuebecIf you received an allowance from the Ministry of Immigration, Diversity and Inclusion or from your employer for childcare expenses, this amount will be included in the "Additional Information'' section of the RL-1 slip, in Box 201.
To report this amount, please follow the procedure below:
1. On the left-side menu of the "Interview", select ''T4 and employment income". On the right-side screen, choose ''T4 and RL-1 (Relevé 1) income earned in Quebec with QPP contributions".
2. On the page "T4 - Statement of Remuneration Paid (RL-1) with QPP contributions", go to the bottom of the screen to the section "Other information'' click on the triangle to see the list of choices and select the option "RL-1 (201) - Child care allowance". Enter the amount in the box on the right and click on "Next" at the bottom of the page.
3. This amount will be carried over on "Line 40 of Schedule C" to reduce the amount of childcare expenses eligible for the tax credit.
4. If you have no amount on line 39 of Schedule C, the amount in the box 201 on the RL-1 slip will not be included.
If your allocations for childcare expenses exceed the amount paid for childcare expenses, Schedule C will not be produced.
It should be noted that this allowance from the Ministry of Immigration, Diversity and Inclusion, is paid under the financial assistance program for linguistic integration or by your employer, is not taxable, but reduces the credit for childcare expenses in Quebec only.
