Dependant with a disability
To claim the amount for a disabled person who is your
dependant, you should specify the disability of that person in the
dependant's file. To do so, follow the steps below:

of the dependant's file select "Medical and disability".
2- On the screen to your right, click on the
plus sign "+" icon located on the right
of the line "Infirmity and disability for the
dependant".

disability", enter the relevant information.
4- You must indicate if the person is claiming the
disability amount on the line "Is the dependant's eligible for
the disability amount on federal line 31600?".
5- On the line "Does the dependant's infirmity
provide entitlement to Canada caregiver amount?". An answer
is required to this question.
6- For Residents of Quebec, you must answer the
3 questions that are in the Quebec section. The third
question relates to question 46 on form TP-752.0.14, which
determines whether the person needs assistance with a common daily
activity.
7- Return to the "Medical expenses and
disability" section and on the screen to your right click on
the plus sign "+" icon located on the
right side of the line "Canada caregiver amount to claim for
this dependant (line 30450) / Quebec Schedule H - Eligibility and
dates of qualifying period for this dependant (Quebec line
462)"and enter the relevant information.
Schedule 5 will be generated by the program in
the family head's file, and the non-refundable credit for
caregivers will be reported on line 30400 or 30425 of federal
Step 5. As for the non-refundable credit for people with
disabilities transferred from a dependent, it will be reported on
line 31800 of federal Step 5.
For Quebec residents, if you wish to claim the
caregiver amount, follow these steps:
1- On the "Left side menu on the Interview tab"
of the family head's file, select "Quebec credits".
2- On the page to your right, scroll down to "Quebec line
462" group, and in the screen to your right choose "Schedule
H - Dwelling information for the tax credit for caregiver".
