As per the Canada Revenue Agency, "

the dependant must also be one of the following persons by blood, marriage, common-law partnership, or adoption:

  • your parent or grandparent
  • your child, grandchild, brother, or sister under 18 years of age 
  • your child, grandchild, brother, or sister 18 years of age or older with an impairment in physical or mental functions"
