Tax credit for home-support services for seniors - Advanced payment received by spouse (RL-19)

You have the first name (family head) in the program and your spouse have requested and received the advance payments for the tax credit for home-support services for seniors. In order to account for these amounts and generate Quebec Schedule J, please follow the steps below:

1. On the left-side menu of the " Interview " tab of the family head's file, select ''Senior home support''.

2. On the right-hand side, choose the line that applies to your situation. However, as the family head, keep in mind that you cannot choose in your file the "Credit for home-support services - no calculation (advanced payment same as tax credit)" option. You must complete the whole page according to the information displayed on the lease.

3. Then, return to the left side menu on the " Interview " tab, select "Quebec tax credits", and on the right-hand side of the screen, choose the option "Sharing tax credits between spouses on Quebec Schedules B, C, J and P".

4. On the new page generated, online entitled "Quebec - Schedule J - Home support", select "Give all claims to spouse" from the drop-down menu and then click "Next" at the bottom of the page.

5. In the spouse's file, make sure that you've entered the amount in Box D of the RL-19 slip. To do so, in the left side menu on the " Interview " tab, select "Other information slips" and on the right-hand side of the screen, choose "RL-19 - Advance payments".

In the spouse's return, an amount will be reported by the program on line 441 and another amount on line 458. Note that the amounts may not match. If you verify the calculation table of Quebec's Schedule J, you will notice that the amounts that were paid are calculated according to criteria established by Revenu Québec.
