Amanda12 Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 At what stage does it ask if you want to claim the Climate Action Incentive? I did not want to claim it as I wanted my husband to get the credit when he filed separately but it looked it it tried to claim it for both of us. How can you choose to opt out of claiming it on your return? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amanda12 Posted March 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 Thanks. Seeing it now, I realize I left it blank because I wasn't intending to claim it and it looks like it defaulted to claiming it for me. It really should force you to choose "claim" or "do not claim" if it is going to decide for you if you don't make a choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Rie Posted April 11, 2021 Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 *EDIT: All good; I’m a dumb-ass * Please help! My tax returns are complete but climate action incentive won't allocate to either spouse. I've tried letting optimax calculate; I've used controls by ticking one spouse as not claiming and other spouse claiming, but neither spouse is receiving this credit!! I have no error diagnostics, just no climate action incentive for anyone!! I really do not want to have to re-enter these returns as there is a business statement involved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starsoccer Posted April 16, 2021 Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 I also have the same problem that the Climate Action Initiative is not triggering no matter what I do in the Control settings for my spouse and I. Does Ufile need to do another update to fix? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty9 Posted April 16, 2021 Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 I have a single person that it's not calculating. It has been selected properly on the address page and the controls page. Is there an issue??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeedHelpPlease Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 I emailed support@ufile.ca a couple of days ago but haven't heard back. I then tried help@ufile.ca & no reply. I then tried online chat and was told it was unavailable. My dependent & my tax returns have been completed for a week except for me getting the climate action $150. I've tried online ufile help. i've tried random google searches (found this). I've spent an hour playing around with the interview options but can't get it to reflect properly on my return. I've confirmed I should get it per CRA. Spending a lot of time if someone can please help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snagglpus Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 I tried manually assigning it in controls but it wouldn't work either way around. So, I let Maxback decide and voila ... it gave it to the person with the highest income Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR00 Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 I'm having the same issue. I just set both of our to "let maxback decide" and still nothing for either of us!!! any fixes? tips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starsoccer Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 Tech support got back to me today. I accidentally said "Yes" in the CRA Questions at the beginning that I was "...an officer or servant of another country, such as a diplomat..." Right below it it says in bold Climate action incentive so that might have thrown people off. Make sure it says No. Scroll further down and make sure you selected your principal place of residence under Climate Action Incentive section. At the end under Controls you selected to Claim it or Let Maxback Decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krazkrycek Posted July 12, 2021 Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 Found this info for the Climate action incentive Go to the bottom of "Interview" and select the "Controls" section. On the page titled "OptiMax Controls", under "Schedule 14 - Climate Incentive" go to the line "Who Should Claim the Climate Incentive (line 449)" and from the drop-down menu choose the person who should receive this refundable credit.

Tod Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 Does the Climate Action Incentive calculation show up any where when you print your tax return. In the "Controls" section under Climate Action Incentive, I have selected "Let Maxback Decide" for both myself and my wife, but I do not see any further reference to it when I print the return. I was hoping to see some sort of confirmation that it was properly claimed, or reference to it in the official tax return submitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curmudgeon Posted March 15, 2022 Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 If you are filing from AB, SK, MB or ON, the CAI is not claimed on the tax return. Instead, you'll receive quarterly payments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
