Childcare expenses - Babysitter
To claim childcare expenses when a babysitter has provided the
childcare services in the tax year, you must enter the expenses in
the child's file.
To create a tax file for the child, please follow the steps
below:
1. On the "Interview" tab, on the line of "Family
head", click on "Add a dependant", which is located to
the right.
2. On the "Left side menu on the Interview tab", enter
the information relating to the identification of the child to the
"Dependant identification".
Once you have created the child's file, enter the childcare
expenses through the following steps:
1- On the "Left side menu on the Interview tab" of the
child's file, located on the left-hand side of the screen, select
"Childcare".
2- On the page appearing on the right, select
"Babysitter" and fill out the fields accordingly.
Residents of Quebec must enter either the social insurance
number (SIN) of the person who paid the childcare expenses or the
business identification number of the childcare provider.
The program will determine the eligibility and the amount of the
deduction by applying the relevant limits.
The amount will be generated by the program to
line 21400 of the federal return.
