Recommended Posts

Hello , I am doing my mother in laws tax and she is now living in LTC (CHSLD) for just over a year, but still owns family home after the passing of her husband. Her property is in Anjou (Ville De Montreal) and when I try to answer questions in Ufile it asks for AMOUNT OF POTENTIAL GRANT shown on municipal tax receipt. I have gone through all municipal tax bills back to 2014 (and I don't believe her husband ever applied for it either)  and haven't found this info. Am I doing this correctly using amounts from previous years assessments?. Thank you.
