EGM Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 My friend's daughter turned 18 in the middle of 2022. Is it correct to say that she can be included as a dependent for the 2022 tax year and Ufile/CRA will recognise her birth date and adjust accordingly? Or is there another section that needs to be filled in that explicitly tells Ufile that she was a dependent for only half of 2022? Also, this is the first year that she has had her own income. Under her name as a dependent Ufile asks if she needs to file a return. Is it best to tell it 'yes' and send it with her mother's return or to tell it 'no' and create her own separate return? Thanks for any advice. E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo123 Posted April 19 Report Share Posted April 19 Hello EGM, She can continue to be a Dependant of the file after turning 18. If the Dependant has the same mailing address and /or is a student they can continue to be a Dependant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
