Seniors and students

Appreciate and thank you for your reply.

CRA calculates the CCTB based on Family Net Income which is Line 236. This year I have to report the lump sum pension received. This makes a big increase on Line 236. I will be not eligible for the CCTB if the lump sum is not excluded from Adjusted Family Net Income when calculating the CCTB. In fact, what I earned falls within low and modest income range only. I would like to find out whether the lump sum will be excluded from the Adjusted Family Net Income.
