Tax credit for home-support services for seniors - Sharing tax credits between spouseBy default, the program will grant the tax credit for home-support service for seniors to the family head or to the person receiving the advance payments
However, if you do not receive advance payments, you can transfer to your spouse the tax credit for home-support services for seniors.
Also, if the family head died during the tax year, you can claim the tax credit for home support for seniors.
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.
In the spouse's file, under the "Tax return" tab, Schedule J will be generated, and the credit will be reported by the program on line 458 of the Quebec return.
