I transferred my spouse's personal amount to myself as she had zero income in 2023. I reported this to my employer as well. How do I include this in my tax return?

If you are using our TurboTax Desktop/Download software the Canada Revenue Agency(CRA) has these instructions:

Completing your tax return

Complete Schedule 2, Federal Amounts Transferred from your Spouse or Common-law Partner, and enter the result on line 32600 of your return.

Enter your marital status and information about your spouse or common-law partner (including their net income even if it is "0") on page 1 of your return.

Complete Schedule S2, Provincial or Territorial Amounts Transferred from your Spouse or Common-Law Partner, to claim the corresponding provincial or territorial non-refundable tax credit. Enter the result on line 58640 of your provincial or territorial Form 428.
