My spouse has a T2202A, to be transferred to me, but after having entered all the information in our couples filing, why does the credit does not appear in my tax return?

Did you have tax owing before the transfer? Which version of TurboTax are you using? Is it Online or is it the CD/Desktop edition?

It's showing tax refund. I am using the online version.

If you don't have tax payable, then the tuition transfer won't be used because it's a non-refundable credit. You can only use the amount to lower your taxes (to zero if possible), you can't use it to create or increase a refund. https://turbotax.community.intuit.ca/replies/3502173
