I have high medical expenses, i'm disable ( major clinic depresion ) which left me unble to work or study for most of the year. are my medical expenses refundable?

Sorry to hear about your health. Medical expenses are Non-refundable tax credit. Therefore, they only reduce your tax payable. The credit allowed depends on your net and taxable income. For example: if your taxable income is lower than $14,000. and you have no tax payable, the medical credit will not be applicable.   

 

If you are eligible to make the claim, your medical expense total must be higher than 3% of your net income to become an allowable credit.  

 

For more information, please see this TurboTax article. How to Deduct Your Medical Expenses? 

Also, here's the blog by CRA: Line 33099.

 

Thanks for considering TurboTax.
