TAX CREDIT FOR HOME-SUPPORT SERVICES FOR SENIORS -
CHANGE OF HOUSING
If you left your own house or dwelling to move to a senior's
residence, you may be entitled to a refundable tax credit for
expenses related to home-support services, provided you meet both
of the following conditions:
a) you resided in Quebec on December 31st
of the tax year.
b) You were at least 70 years old on
December 31st of the tax year.
If you reached the age of 70 in the tax year, you could claim
the tax credit only for the expenses incurred from the
time you turned 70.
To claim this tax credit, follow the steps below:
1- On the left-side menu of the
" Interview " tab of the family head's
file, select the "Senior home support" section, even if the
family head is aged under 70.
2- In the "Senior home support" section, on the
right-hand side of the screen, several choices are available to
you. You must choose the option that applies to your situation.

in own house" or " You lived in an apartment
building" or "You lived in a
