Political contribution tax credit - New Brunswick

You can claim the political contribution tax credit if you contributed to political parties, district associations, or official independent candidates registered in New Brunswick.

To claim the amount in the program, please follow these steps:

1- On the "Left side menu on the Interview tab", select "New Brunswick tax credits".

2- On the page to your right, click on the plus "+" icon to the right of the line "NB 428 line 61550 - New Brunswick political contributions tax credit".

3- On the new page generated, enter the amount of contributions in the field "Provincial eligible political contributions" and click "Next" at the bottom of the page.

The program will calculate the amount for the New Brunswick Political Contribution Tax Credit, based on your total contributions, and report it to line 61550 of the form NB428 - New Brunswick Tax and Credits.

If your total political contributions are more than $1,075, the credit will be $500 (maximum amount). If not, it will be calculated on line 83 of the NB Provincial worksheet from the left side menu, under the "Tax Return" tab.
