can not set dates in northern residents deduction

You need to enter the date in the format "dd/mm/yyyy". The residency period(s) must be a continuous period of 6 consecutive months. The end date must be in 2025 (ex: 31/12/2025).
 

If you are still not able to resolve this issue, please contact our phone support team for more assistance.
