Lines 31800 and 58480

[Graham79]

My ex has given me my son's credit amounts for autism for lines 31800 and 58480.

All answers here suggest that these must be inputted on his return. He is 14 and has never worked.

Please help!

 

Thanks

Graham

Hello Graham79,

To claim the disability tax credit amount for a disabled person who is your dependant, you should specify the disability of that person in the dependant's file. To do so, follow the steps below:
1- In the "Left side menu on the Interview tab" of the dependant's file select "Medical and disability".
2- In the screen to your right, click on the plus sign "+" icon located on the right of the line "Infirmity and disability for the dependant".
3- In the page "Dependant's infirmity and disability", enter the relevant information.
4- You must indicate if the person is claiming the disability amount on line "Is the dependant's eligible for the disability amount on federal line 31600?".
5- On the line "Does the dependant's infirmity provide entitlement to Canada caregiver amount?". An answer is required to this question.
6- For Residents of Quebec, you must answer the 3 questions that are in the Quebec section. The third question relates to question 46 on form TP-752.0.14, which determines whether the person needs assistance with a common daily activity.
7- Return to the "Medical expenses and disability" section and on the screen to your right click on the plus sign "+" icon located on the right side of the line "Canada caregiver amount to claim for this dependant (line 307) / Quebec Schedule H - Eligibility and dates of qualifying period for this dependant (Quebec line 462)"and enter the relevant information.
Schedule 5 will be generated by the program in the family head's file, and the non-refundable credit for caregivers will be reported on line 30425 or 30450 of the T1 return. As for the non-refundable credit for people with disabilities transferred from a dependent, it will be reported on line 31800 of the T1.

For Quebec residents, if you wish to claim the caregiver amount, follow these steps:
1- In the "Left side menu on the Interview tab" of the family head's file, select "Quebec credits".
2- In the page to your right, scroll down to "Quebec line 462" group, and in the screen to your right choose "Schedule H - Dwelling information for the tax credit for caregiver".
3- In this page, from the drop-down menu, select the option that fits your situation.
The program will generate Quebec Schedule H and will carry over the amount of refundable credit on line 462 of the Quebec return.

Ok. This part I do not have on my return:

7- Return to the "Medical expenses and disability" section and on the screen to your right click on the plus sign "+" icon located on the right side of the line "Canada caregiver amount to claim for this dependant (line 307) / Quebec Schedule H - Eligibility and dates of qualifying period for this dependant (Quebec line 462)"and enter the relevant information.
Schedule 5 will be generated by the program in the family head's file, and the non-refundable credit for caregivers will be reported on line 30425 or 30450 of the T1 return. As for the non-refundable credit for people with disabilities transferred from a dependent, it will be reported on line 31800 of the T1.

I do not have the option for Canada caregiver amount... on my return?

This section is for residents of Quebec only.

Thank you for clarifying. Where do I put in the amounts I'm claiming? There is a substancial amount based on prior unclaimed years.
