Andy J Posted March 20, 2021 Report Share Posted March 20, 2021 This is the third year of doing my Ufile returns. This year, I have entered about $4000 for charitable donations. I have a CPP OAP of about $17,000. Why do I see at the end of all the entries I make from my tax slips, a total of $0.00 for charitable donations in the Federal Returns part? Help please thank you Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AltaRed Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 Charitable donations earn a 15% non-refundable tax credit. If you do not owe tax, you can't use a tax credit against nothing owed. In other words, there are very few things than can cause a negative tax. Most deductions are non-refundable type tax credits. One that is not is HST/GST tax credit.
