How come we can only enter 120 entries on medical expense form?

You can simply add the specific ones up as such- for example- if you have medical expenses for prescriptions from the same drug store- then you can add those together and make it one entry and so on. Please be sure to keep all of your receipts for CRA. They do require you to keep them for 7 years. They can ask you for them at any given time. Please note you can only enter medical expenses for a 12 month period.

My husband & I will split incomes as seniors. We usually put all medical expenses onto my husband's return because he has the lowest income prior to splitting. Combined we have over $10,000 of expenses. Will the 120 entries really restrict us and flag us by CRA for an audit?

No. You can add similar medical expenses under the same slip. For example: add all your dental expenses for the year in one entry, and all the physiotherapy under one entry, and so on. You can also enter a single entry for all medical expenses combined.

 

For further instruction, you can check the following link:
