Getting started

The Canada Caregiver Credit (CCC) is a non-refundable tax credit for individuals who support a spouse or common-law partner, or a dependant with a physical or mental impairment. If your wife is dependent on you for support and has a T2201, then you likely are eligible. But, with the credit being non-refundable, you’ll only get it if you need it to reduce your taxes – it can’t make or add to a refund.

If you were eligible in past years but didn’t take the credit, you can go back to your old returns and make changes through the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) or through ReFILE: https://turbotax.community.intuit.ca/community/tax-return-amendment/help/i-have-filed-my-tax-return-...
