Frequently Asked Questions

+ What is the Disability Tax Credit?

The Disability Tax Credit (DTC) is a non-refundable tax credit designed to help individuals with disabilities, or their supporting family members, reduce the amount of income tax they may have to pay. The goal of the DTC is to offset some of the extra costs associated with living with a disability.

+ Do I need a formal diagnosis to apply for the disability tax credit?

No, you don't need a formal medical diagnosis to complete the Disability Tax Credit Application on our website. However, we recommend talking to your medical practitioner about your condition to gather all the relevant information before starting your application. Collecting medical information from hospitals, clinics, and specialists can take some time.

+ What if I do not have a family doctor or one willing to sign my disability tax credit application?

We can help recommend a medical practitioner to review and potentially sign your application. If you need assistance, please contact us at [email protected]. Medical practitioners will need all relevant medical documentation to support your impairment, so please have all the necessary documents ready when we connect you with a practitioner.

+ I want to use your website to apply for the disability tax credit, but I am nervous about using your website and not understanding the questions or which answers are appropriate for me?

Don't worry.  We offer a guided application from a trained DTC Navigator who will be with you from the beginning to the end of your application.
