Print this pageForward this document  Child care expenses deduction erroneously claimed federally

Program(s) affected: T1 Document created: April 1, 2005
Tax year(s): 2004 Document last modified: April 8, 2005
Version(s): 8.21 Problem status: Fixed in v8.22

Why is DT Max claiming child care expenses federally even though I used the option T1 - Child tax benefits within the keyword OPTIMIZE to indicate that I did not wish to claim these expenses at the federal level?

This occurs when the keyword Optimize is entered in the file of the family head's spouse.

As a workaround, enter this keyword and all related information in the file of the family head.
