Should a T2202 with only time spent in an education program reduce my tax return?

I didn’t pay any tuition for the program as it was a funded program, I don’t know if that is the part I’m miss understanding.

Should a T2202 with only time spent in an education program reduce my tax return?

As per the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) You cannot claim the tuition amount on your tax certificate if any of the following applies to you:

  • the fees were paid or reimbursed by your employer, or an employer of one of your parents, where the amount is not included in your or your parent's income
  • the fees were paid by a federal, provincial, or territorial job training program, where the amount is not included in your income
  • the fees were paid (or eligible to be paid) under a federal program to help athletes, where the payment or reimbursement has not been included in your income
