When filing a return for a dependent as part of the same Windows UFile file (Family Head, Spouse, Dependent), where the dependent has no income but does have tuition fees on a T2202 for the 2021 tax year, I initially chose "Let MaxBack decide" when asked on the dependent's return as part of the "Transfer of current year unused amounts" the "Treatment of current year unused tuition amount - federal" question. All appeared to be fine (as the TOTAL refund for Family Head and the Spouse TOGETHER increased in total when the tuition was added and "Let MaxBack decide was selected) but when when I chose "Transfer to family head" instead of "Let MaxBack decide" the TOTAL refund for Family Head and Spouse TOGETHER was GREATER than if I chose "Let MaxBack decide". This does not seems correct as, of course, less of a refund is not the "Max" outcome. Has anyone come across this issue? In our situation the refund was almost $300 less choosing "Let MaxBack decide" versus "Transfer to family head"! MaxBack Tuition.pdf

Thank you for making me revisit the issue @TheTaxSmith. This issue is that I was completing my daughter's tax return (who was added as a 'dependent' many years ago in UFile but is now an adult - and the person claiming the 'Home Buyer's Amount'). Not surprisingly, UFile only allows the 'Head of Family' and the 'Spouse' to claim the 'Home Buyer's Amount' not a 'dependent'. Thanks again, mystery solved.

Thank you @Nawal for your response to @Grace V 's question but I am running the Windows version of UFile 2020 (version 24.12 Ser/: 178288) and my version is very different from Nawal's picture. There is no reference to Line 31270 Home Buyer's Amount. There is no separate box for "Other Credits" distinct from "Other Deductions" as in Nawal's image. I am filing in Alberta although that should not make a difference since the Home Buyer's Credit is a federal credit. Thank you for any insight you can offer.
