If the CRA asks for receipts, acceptable receipts must state your name, the date of payment, and the amount you paid.
Any of the following documents may be accepted to support your claim:
cancelled cheques or cheque images (copies of both sides of the cheque have to be legible)
bank and employer statements if they show a transfer of funds from the payer's account or paycheque to either the recipient's account or to a provincial agency and the amounts are equal or less than the amounts specified in the court order or written agreement
statement or letter from the maintenance enforcement program (for example, provincial agency) supporting the actual amount of support paid under the court order or written agreement
signed receipts from the recipient showing the total amount paid in the year
Therefore, your actual bank transactions along with your court documents outlining the payments should be sufficient.
