Sharing tax credits between spouses - Quebec

For Quebec residents, certain tax credits can be shared between spouses.

Normally, the program optimizes the transfer of credits and deductions between spouses to minimize the amount of tax payable. However, with the options offered, you can force the program to give all available deductions and credits to the person of your choice.

Remember that if you choose to force the program to assign these amounts to one spouse rather than the other, you are in effect bypassing certain family optimization routines as a result; this may increase the amount of tax payable for the whole family.

If you choose to use the ''Claim portion'' option, you must also enter the amount that you wish to claim. Any balance will be allocated to your spouse

To access this option, please follow this procedure:

On the "Left side menu of the Interview tab'', select the "Quebec credits" and on the screen to your right, choose the line "Sharing tax credits between spouses on Quebec Schedules B, C, J and P''.

You can then decide what you want to do for each of the listed credits.
