Dad (Baljit Singh Chhina)

• DOB: 1965/12/23
• SIN: 268916285
• Income: $15,570 (social assistance, line 14500)
• Taxable income: $0 (deducted on line 25000)
• DTC claimed: $10,138federal/$10,298 provincial — entirely unused
• Federal/Ontario tax: $0
• Marital status: Separated

Follow-up Action Items

• Amend dad’s return (ReFILE) to add ON-BEN with rent at 48 Mint Leaf Drive for OEPTC/OTB
• Once T2201 approved, claim dad’s transferred DTC on my return (line 31800)
• Consider RDSP for dad — CRA grants up to $20k with no contribution needed for low-income
• Investigate mom’s $5,576.38 under appeal on CRA
• Verify if mom’s $48 SickKids donation (Jan-Feb 2025) was double-claimed on 2024 return (extended deadline) — may need ReFILE correction

Notes

• COVID repayment warning on mom’s return (line 23200) — likely from T4E auto-import, assumed correct
• Separated spouses cannot transfer DTC or other credits (line 32600) — dad’s unused DTC goes to supporting child (me), not mom
• Dad’s prior DTC on CRA showed 1996-2003 (digital record), but Wealthsimple confirmed active T2201 on file — new T2201 submitted for renewal and retroactive adjustments
• Software used: Wealthsimple Tax (pay-what-you-want, free)
