Schedule D - Solidarity Tax Credit - Involuntary SeparationHow to calculate the solidarity tax credit following an involuntary separation so that both spouses can claim this credit?
If, on December 31, 2021, you had a spouse but he or she did not live with you (for example, if one of you permanently lives in a residential and long-term care centre), each of you must complete a separate Schedule D to claim the solidarity tax credit.
To enter the information pertaining to the solidarity tax credit, please follow each step below in each folder:
1. On the left-side menu of the "Interview" tab, select the "Revenu Québec questions", and on the screen to your right, enter your information. You must answer "Yes" to the question "Do you wish to apply for the Québec Solidarity Tax Credit?" and click "Next" at the end of the page.
2. Return in the left side menu on the "Interview" tab selects the "Solidarity tax credit" and on the page that appears, answer the questions you are asked according to your situation.
NB: For the person who lives in a nursing home,
On the page that appears in the section "A. Information about you" on the first question, you must answer "No".
On the "Owner, Tenant or Subtenant" section, to the question "Were you or your spouse tenants (received a RL-31) or owners on December 31, 2021?", you must choose from the drop-down menu to your right "Neither tenant or owner".
You should be able to consult Schedule D by clicking on it in the left side menu on the "Tax Return" tab at the top of the screen. An estimate of the solidarity credit will be generated by the program. You will see it by selecting the "Solidarity credit calculation " section in the left side menu on the "Tax Return" tab. However, Revenu Québec will confirm any amount that you are entitled to receive.
