Quebec - Day camp fee - Child care - Activity Tax Credit for Children

Your child has spent time in a day camp for which you received a receipt for childcare expenses and another receipt from the same camp for the child's activities.

If you have a single receipt, please ask the issuer of the document what portion pertains to daycare fees, and what pertains to camp fees.

1. On the child's file, enter the childcare expenses under the heading "Childcare" and on the right-hand page, click on the plus sign "+" icon to the right of the line "Daycare (includes day camp)".

2. On the page that appears, enter the relevant information. On the line "Amount paid to the daycare centre for this child", enter the amount of federal childcare expenses. For residents of Quebec, if you received a RL-24, the amount of Box C represents the amount eligible for the federal return, while the amount of Box E represents the amount eligible for Québec.

3. Then, on the "Left-side menu on the Interview tab" select "Fitness and recreation" or "Children's arts amount". Enter the relevant information in each item if necessary.

The refundable credit may be claimed by the head of the family or the spouse.

To choose the person who will claim this credit, in the child's file, select the "Controls" heading and in the page, that appears, go to the bottom of this page under "Quebec activity tax credit".

For the line "Who should claim the activity tax credit for this child Quebec line 462?", choose the person.

For residents of Quebec, the credit will be reported on line 462 of the Quebec return of the person claiming it.
