Scott herron Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 I'm helping my daughter do her tax return (she is NOT a dependant, but still lives at home and was not a student for the 2023 tax tear) Ufile is automatically making her claim the CWB and the quebec work premium and I don't think she is eligible. Maybe for the CWB, but definitely not for the quebec work premium (she does not live alone and that is a requirement) How do I tell ufile not to calculate the CWB and the Quebec work premium on my daughter's return. Like I said the CWB is questionable(It doesn't mention living at home with parents as an adult), but the Quebec work premium is clear (must live alone) Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo123 Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 Hello Scott herron, CRA CWB Basic amount eligibility You are eligible for the basic amount of the CWB if you meet all the following conditions: Earn working income and your net income is below the net income level set for your province or territory of residence Are a resident of Canada throughout the year Are 19 years of age or older on December 31, or you live with your spouse or common-law partner or your child You are not eligible for the CWB if any of the following applies: Are enrolled as a full-time student at a designated educational institution for more than 13 weeks in the year unless, on December 31, you have an eligible dependant Are confined to a prison or similar institution for a period of at least 90 days during the year Do not have to pay tax in Canada because you are an officer or servant of another country, such as a diplomat, or you are a family member or employee of that person https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/child-family-benefits/acwb-eligibility.html RQ Work Premium On December 31 of the year, you were resident in Québec and: a Canadian citizen, an Indian, a permanent resident, or a person on whom Canada has conferred refugee protection. On December 31 of the year, you were 18 or older. If you were under 18, you are still eligible if: you had a spouse on December 31, you are the father or mother of a child who lives with you, or you have been recognized as an emancipated minor by a competent authority. You (or your spouse on December 31) are reporting: employment income, a research grant, Wage Earner Protection Program (WEPP) payments, or income from a business that was carried on by you and/or your spouse, either independently or as a partner actively engaged in the business. You did not transfer an amount as a child 18 or over enrolled in post-secondary studies to your father or mother (line 20 of Schedule S for the year). No one received the Family Allowance from Retraite Québec with regard to you, unless you turned 18 before December 1 of the year. No one designated you as a dependent child for purposes of the work premium or adapted work premium in their income tax return for the year in question. You were not a full-time student (if you were a full-time student, you are not entitled to the tax credits respecting the work premium unless you were the mother or father of a child living with you on December 31 of the year). https://www.revenuquebec.ca/en/citizens/tax-credits/work-premium-tax-credits/eligibility-requirements-for-the-work-premium-tax-credits/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were not a full-time student (if you were a full-time student, you are not entitled to the tax credits respecting the work premium unless you were the mother or father of a child living with you on December 31 of the year). https://www.revenuquebec.ca/en/citizens/tax-credits/work-premium-tax-credits/eligibility-requirements-for-the-work-premium-tax-credits/ If you read further on the page of the Quebec work premium, you will see the following If you meet all the conditions above, read on to see whether you are entitled to the tax credits. Work premium You may be entitled to the work premium for the 2023 taxation year if, in addition to the basic requirements, you meet all of the requirements below: Your annual work income is: over $2,400 if you are a person living alone or a single parent, over $3,600 when added to that of your spouse, whether or not you have any children. Your annual family income is less than the appropriate amount from the table below. My daughter does not live alone. She lives with her parents, but was not a full time student in 2023, so is not eligible for the quebec work premium. How do I unselect it in Ufile.
