eligible dividends

[Phil F]

I have $10000 in eligible dividends. $5000 each spouse. Using a split pension format. I entered the grossed up amount at 138% or $6900 for ;each spouse. . This is being carried over to the federal return as $12650 for each spouse or a total of $25300. makes no sense.

Hello Phil F,

I believe you are referring to : 

T5 - Investment income :

When the income relates to a JOINT account, enter your percentage share in the account, 50%
Do you wish to transfer the remainder to your spouse's tax return (if applicable)? Yes

T1 : Taxable amount of dividends from taxable Canadian corporation L12000 $ 6,900  for Family Head and $ 6,900 for Spouse
