David Buckle Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 I purchased a head of household package with four free users in years past. I e-filed my report for both and total cost was $19.99 plus tax. This year I paid $19+ for an online head of household not realizing it covered my return only and no free returns included. I paid and when I tried to e-file I was asked to pay another $14.00 in order to e-file my wives return. My wife has a total yearly income of under $20,000 all of it coming from OAS and CPP. She qualifies for a free e-file. How do I receive a voucher code to remove the $14,00 cost ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo123 Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 Hello David Buckle, If your *total family income* is less than $20,000*, you will not be charged any fee to print or NETFILE your return(s) with UFile. Should your income exceed this limitation, you will be asked to pay to print the return or submit it via NETFILE. *This is based on the *TOTAL* amount from line 15000 of the federal return of each member of your family i.e the total. (this can include Dependant’s child benefits. https://www.ufile.ca/tips-and-tools/file-for-free#lowincome How much does UFile ONLINE cost? First family member entered in UFile (family head): $19.95 plus applicable provincial tax and GST Second family member entered in UFile (spouse): $14.00 plus applicable provincial tax and GST Additional family members (dependants)*: $8.00 plus applicable provincial tax and GST Individuals or families with total income* of $20,000 or less: no charge *Total income is the amount appearing on line 15000 of your tax return.

John Johnson Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 Hi, If a child doesn't work, has no income and Ufile says no tax return is required should I pay for him as a dependent? When I try to pay he is on a separate line with 8$ to pay for him too Thank you, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo123 Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 Hello John Johnson, If you do not need to file than there is no need for the tax return or paying for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Johnson Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 Hi Geo123, Thank you for your reply. What is confusing for me is that when I am about to pay, Ufile has him in the list to pay for, like you showed: First family member entered in UFile (family head): $19.95 plus applicable provincial tax and GST Second family member entered in UFile (spouse): $14.00 plus applicable provincial tax and GST Additional family members (dependants)*: $8.00 plus applicable provincial tax and GST He is in school and there is a tuition that i paid for him, which is transferred to me as a deduction, as a parent. I am afraid that if I don't pay for him, it might affect the tuition transfer. It is really confusing. If he doesn't need to file a return and we don't need to pay for him, why is Ufile listing him as a person to pay for??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo123 Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 Hello John Johnson, The credit is being transferred to you, from the Dependant Tuition, and UFIle knows this by him being in the file. If UFIle says he does not need to submit tuition then no need to pay for a tax return Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
