Do I qualify for WITB?

I heard you don't qualify for Working Income Tax Benefit if you're a full time student. Is it full time Highschool student or University/College student or both?

Yes, if you were a full-time high school student and meet all of the other requirements for the WITB, you are eligible to claim it on your income tax return.

You do not qualify for the Working Income Tax Benefit if you are a post-secondary student and claiming tuition fees on your income tax benefit.

I was only a full time Highschool student meaning that I qualify for it?
