Going back several years is a complicated process.. You would need to do a T1 adjustment for your mother for each year applying the disability tax credit to her returns first. Then do a T1 adjustment for each year for yourself showing the transfer of any of the credit she did not use. Be aware that if she had other deductions, the disability credit will be applied first. If she uses it to reduce her taxes, the other tax deductions may be reversed.
It may be easier to send CRA two letters, one asking CRA to reassess the specific years affected by the certificate and to transfer the unused credit. Your mother will need to send that one. You would then need to send a letter from you with it, asking to have the remaining credit applied to your tax returns, and have them reassess yours as well.
