Does it matter who claims the BC tax credit ito a married couple?

Does it matter who claims the BC tax credit ito a married couple?

If you are eligible for the BC Sales Tax Credit, it does not matter which spouse claims it on their tax return.

It will simply increase the refund of whose return it is claimed on, (or reduce the amount owing).
