Who is eligible for the Disability Tax Credit?

Who is eligible for the Disability Tax

One is eligible for the Disability Tax Credit if one has been or will be unable to do any of the following by themselves: dress, feed, go to the washroom, have the thought process to perform an everyday function for one year, or if one is unable to hear, see, talk or walk.

In order to apply for the Disability Tax Credit, Form 2201 – “Disability Tax Credit Certificate” must be completed by a registered medical practitioner. This form requires the date the disability started.

It is also important to note that the Disability Tax Credit is nonrefundable and is only available to those who have taxes payable. If the amount of taxes owed is less than the Disability Tax Credit, as stated in http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/tx/ndvdls/tpcs/ncm-tx/rtrn/cmpltng/ddctns , one may be able to transfer all or part of the disability amount to a spouse or common-law partner or to another supporting person.
