If you are using TurboTax Online- you will not see the schedules. Here is how to enter your transfer from you sons tuition: 

Before you begin, find out the federal and/or provincial amount(s) your dependant is transferring to you. Then, enter income and RRSP information for yourself into TurboTax. Finally, add your child or grandchild as a dependant.

TurboTax Online:

  1. Select Find from the TurboTax menu
  2. Enter claims for dependants and select Go
  3. When prompted to review or claim any of these credits, choose Yes, then select Continue
  4. Select Enter Credit Info next to the name of the dependant who's transferring unused tuition amounts to you
  5. Select Tranfer my Child's Tuition and Education Amounts, then select Continue
  6. Follow the on-screen instructions to select Tuition Transfer, enter the amount(s) of the transfer(s), then select Continue

Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
