Print this pageForward this document  Entering education and tuition fees

How do I enter data for the education or tuition credit and transfers?

In the student's file, enter the keyword Tuition-Edu and select the option Taxpayer's own tuition and education amounts. Then, use the keywords SchoolMonths and TUITION-FEES to enter the number of months spent at a post-secondary institution and the amount of tuition fees paid, respectively. DT Max will transfer all or part of a student's credits to his or her spouse, parent or grandparent while taking into account the student's net income and personal credits.

Use the keyword TransferOV.t to modify the choice made by DT Max (e.g. if you want the unused tuition and education amounts to be carried forward rather than transferred).
