This is a question for next years taxes. My son will be attending university and living off campus with two other students. He can claim rent towards the trillium.

The rent is 800 each. The landlord wants one payment a month for 2400. The landlord doesn’t want three different payments of 800. Can we organize to have one parent make the payments and just get a receipt at the end of the year from the landlord for each parent .

As long as each student/parent receives a receipt for their share paid for the year, you can each claim your $800/month. You need to keep a receipt should the Canada Revenue Agency request it in the future.
