Vidyanand Posted February 17 Report Share Posted February 17 Hello Everyone In August 2022, I moved my family from Manitoba to British Columbia so that my wife and I can be with our daughter who joined UBC as an undergraduate student. My wife and I work remotely. Can I claim moving expenses? If so, how? Appreciate your input. Sincerely Vidyanand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo123 Posted February 17 Report Share Posted February 17 Hello Vidyanand, You should check with the CRA. I could not find anything that would confirm your expenses are permitted as the parent of a student (and not a student) and given that you are not moving for your employment. Line 21900 – Moving expenses: Are you a full-time student? Note: Line 21900 was line 219 before tax year 2019. You can claim eligible moving expenses if you moved to be a student in full-time attendance in a post-secondary program at a university, college or other educational institutionhttps://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/individuals/topics/about-your-tax-return/tax-return/completing-a-tax-return/deductions-credits-expenses/line-21900-moving-expenses/line-21900-you-a-full-time-student.html To contact the CRA : 1-800-959-8281 for inquiries related to individuals.

Vidyanand Posted February 24 Author Report Share Posted February 24 Thanks for your reply. Can my daughter claim any of the expenses? She has moved to be a student in full-time attendance in a post-secondary program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
