Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
To determine if your plan qualifies for the Medical Expense Tax Credit, you will need to analyze the coverage it provides you with and compare it to the list of eligible medical expenses from the CRA.
**Plans that are paid by an employer and most mandatory provincial health plans are not eligible to be claimed as health expenses.
To claim the payments of your health plan premium, include them with your other eligible medical expenses and claim the credit on line 33099 of your return.
If you are paying premiums under a plan managed by your employer, you will find the exact amount paid on your T4 Statement of Remuneration slip in Box 85 of the “other information” section. If you do not have the information on a T4 slip, keep your receipts to be able to prove the amounts you paid in the event of a CRA audit.
If you have retired or left a job where your employer still pays for your health plan premiums, you will receive a T4A Statement of Pension, Retirement, Annuity, and Other Income slip with the amount shown in Box 135.
