Is the B.C. renters tax credit "rent paid" and "number of months of tenancy..." just for the year? or in total?

You are entering the months rent was paid in the year.

1. do I enter the monthly rent OR the total annual rent? 2. I wanted this credit on my wife's return but it keeps reverting to me. Thanks

You enter the full amount paid for the year. As per the CRA which ever spouse's return is assessed first will be getting the credit.
