T2202 Entered, but No Tuition Tax Credit (TTC) – Only Canada Training Credit (CTC) Ineligibility Message

[username001]

Hi, I’m filing my taxes using TurboTax and ran into some issues after entering my T2202 tuition slip.

1. Tuition Tax Credit (TTC) is not showing up.

   • My tuition fees are over $100, so I should be eligible for the credit.
   • However, I don’t see any option to apply for the Tuition Tax Credit.
   • Instead, I only get a message saying, “You’re not eligible to receive the Canada Training Credit.”

2. Canada Training Credit (CTC) error message appears instead.

   • I was under 26 years old in 2024, so I understand that I’m not eligible for CTC.
   • But I want to claim the Tuition Tax Credit (TTC), not the Canada Training Credit (CTC).

How can I ensure that the Tuition Tax Credit is applied correctly this year? Is there a way to manually claim it if TurboTax isn’t applying it automatically?

Thanks in advance!

The tuition credit is a non-refundable tax credit that you can use to reduce the tax that you paid or may have to pay. It can’t be used to generate or increase a refund. So, if you don’t have any taxes payable, you will not get the credit.
