After you file

Hi TurboTaxGinette,

 

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, it seems you have totally misunderstood my question. I did not ask about step children. I asked about a child with a non-binary gender identity, i.e. a child which is neither boy nor girl, and therefore not "son" or "daughter" either.

 

Just having "child" instead of the gendered options would make the most sense, no? Especially if the kids' gender isn't even relevant to the CRA why does Turbotax ask for it? This does not only apply to kids but for several of the other options as well (e.g. there is no "parent" available only "mother" and "father." though, for some reason, you have "grandparent" in addition to "grandfather" and "grandmother")

 

So I need turbo tax to update the input form on the "tell us about your dependents" screen to add gender neutral options for dependents that do not have a binary gender identity. In my case, that would be fixed my replacing "son" and "daughter" with "child" but others might also need "sibling," "parent," and so on.

 

Thanks.
