Entering a deceased spouses birthdate?

In the review it states to enter the deceased spouses birthdate but there’s no place to enter it, just name and SIN.

@IMAXITED I will let our development team know about this omission. Thank you for pointing it out. In the meantime, you can enter the DOB using Forms mode. To do this, click the Forms icon on the blue menu bar. Click the Forms icon again and search for “info”. Select “INFOWS” from the list, then click the “OK” button. You can enter the spouse’s information on page 2 of 3.

To get back to EasyStep mode, just click the EasyStep icon on the blue menu bar.
