Hi there - I am trying to claim the Manitoba Caregiver Tax Credit in TurboTax - I can't seem to find out how to do this within the software.

It is apparently called the Primary Caregiver Tax Credit, but when I try to claim it - it says I need dependants (which can't be a spouse)

Hello,

 

Happy to help 🙂 Please refer to  Canada Caregiver Credit (CCC) This nonrefundable tax credit is designed to help caregivers with the costs and expenses of providing care to loved ones.

To see if you qualify for the CCC, and to determine the amounts you may be eligible to claim, visit the CRA: Canada Caregiver Credit webpage. You'll need a copy of this information on-hand when preparing your return in TurboTax.
