Line 316 - Disability amount (for
self)
You may be able to claim the disability amount if the CRA approved your Form T2201, Disability Tax Credit Certificate, that was certified by a medical practitioner.
To be eligible, you must have had a severe and prolonged impairment in physical or mental functions during 2018. An impairment is prolonged if it has lasted, or is expected to last, for a continuous period of at least 12 months.
If you were eligible for the disability tax credit for 2017 and you still meet the eligibility requirements in 2018, you can claim this amount without sending the CRA a new Form T2201. However, you must send the CRA a new one if the previous period of approval ended before 2018 or if the CRA asks you to.
