The number of medical receipts is set in the software and the only other way to send in all your receipts are by mail to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). You can include your claim like last year and then mail in the complete list of detailed expenses and copy of your receipts to be included in your file. The CRA have changed to paperless in the past years. They no longer require receipts be sent in unless asked for. In this case they asked because of the amount of expenses which is a regular occurrence that their system flags it. Please make sure to include your social insurance number and name clearly on each sheet sent in to the CRA and indicate that you are sending this as proof of your eligible medical expenses claimed in your tax return.
NOTE: If there are more than one prescription receipt, your pharmacy will give you a receipt listing all of your prescription expenses totaled for the complete year on one receipt which is preferred by the CRA. You can also do the same for other expenses from the dentist and so on. This way this reduces how many expenses are listed as already tabulated totals.
