I'm aware of the "Clear Forms" functionality and I've replicated the provided steps below.
I've also made sure to clear any overrides (even if I never did override any form).
This has been an issue for a few years because I first encountered the problem with these forms staying open even when not being used when starting my son's 1st tax return which had no carry forward and a single T4 to enter.
They shouldn't 'stay open', nor be printed. As well, they stay present when clicking on the "Forms" so they unnecessarily complicate the tax preparation process.
As well, the Climate Action Incentive form is open when the taxpayer isn't 19, doesn't have a spouse or children.
Finally, Schedule ON(S12) the Ontario Seniors' Home Safety Tax Credit form is open and gets printed. Absolutely no reason it should be and yet I see it year after year for my teenage sons.
