YouShouldConfirmFirst Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 I received taxable dividends from Canada corp. I input the amount into my file via interview. However, the amount shows up in my spouse's federal return line 12000. I can not find a way to make it show up on my federal return line 12000. I noticed that my spouse has a federal dividend tax credit now. But the thing i don't understand is how my income becomes my spouse's income. Any ideas?

TheTaxSmith Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Hi YouShouldConfirmFirst. That's a specific tax transfer that is beneficial and will reduce the family tax. You can shut it down by selecting against it and can then test the results. When the spouse with the dividends can not make use of the dividend tax credit the software will switch them to the other higher income spouse.

YouShouldConfirmFirst Posted March 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Thank you very much. I really should google it first. Such of transfer is allow. The government is making the tax law so complicated to increase people's work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTaxSmith Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 And true to your username, check out this link. https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/individuals/topics/about-your-tax-return/tax-return/completing-a-tax-return/personal-income/line-12000-taxable-amount-dividends-eligible-other-than-eligible-taxable-canadian-corporations.html Its a short distance down but it's there. I used to know the section in the Tax Act but have forgotten. Maybe Sec. 164 as it deals with transfers and well as carrybacks from estates to the recently departed. Beetlejuice.

TheTaxSmith Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Hi Rolande. Did you enter the date and description for the first medical expense and then an amount? If so you should see over on the right a + as well as a -. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolande Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Yes I did enter a date, and description but no + or - sign shows up. I am just wondering because I entered the date as 31-12-2020 for all prescriptions ,the program thinks that is the only amount. I’ lol try and change the date and see if that’s the problem. Thank you for suggesting the date might be the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolande Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Also the change of date did not help either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTaxSmith Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Hi Rolande. You have to go to the Right not left. I suspect you are not viewing the full screen and are missing data entry actions of the far right. Look on the top right of the browser and you will see a _ a □ and an X. Click on the □.

LRLloyd Posted March 29 Report Share Posted March 29 on Ufile i get this message what does it mean and how do i get rid of it? Ufile reduced the amount of taxable dividends entered for the purposes of the tax on split income as it exceeds the total taxable dividends entered elsewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
