Hello there,
I took a continuous education course at the University of Toronto in 2020. When I was filing my tax return for year 2020, my T2202 form was not available. Now I have my T2202 for the academic year of 2020 but I can't figure out how to claim the tuition fee for the previous year of 2020. Can someone please explain to me how it could be done?
Thank you all.
If you didn't claim your Tuition Fee for 2020, you will need to make an adjustment for that tax year. Then once the adjustments are processed by Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), the amount can be used on your current year's return or in any year which they are needed.
If you ever require Tuition Credits, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will immediately use them to reduce any tax liabilities you may have. By going into your Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) My Account and filling out the T2202A slips online, or by mailing in the T2202A slips and a printed adjustment, you can make an adjustment to your prior year tax returns. (Because T2202A slips are likely to be required, it may be easier to finish the adjustment and mail it in.)
The CRA will keep track of these adjustments and apply the amounts to any tax return for which you need them. More information on filing adjustments can be found in this link: I've filed my tax return. Can I still make changes?
