Review Family Tax Credits & Deductions

Families with children and couples have access to some of the most valuable credits in the Canadian tax system — but only if they are claimed correctly and coordinated between both spouses.

We coordinate the information used in both returns and review credits, deductions, and benefit-related filing information that may apply. Childcare, medical expenses, spousal RRSP information, and other items are considered based on the supporting records.

Family Tax Credits & Strategies

Canada Child Benefit (CCB)

Tax-free payments may be available to eligible families with children under 18. Family income and filing information are used in CRA’s benefit calculation.

Childcare Expense Deduction

Daycare, after-school programs, nanny and babysitter costs are deductible — typically claimed by the lower-income spouse.

Spousal RRSP Contributions

Higher-income spouses can contribute to a spousal RRSP, building retirement savings while income-splitting tax liability.

Medical Expense Pooling

Eligible medical expenses can be reviewed together to determine which spouse may be the appropriate claimant under the tax rules.

Eligible Dependent Credit

Single parents can claim a non-refundable credit for one eligible dependent child, similar to a spousal amount.

Pension Income Splitting

Seniors and retirees can split eligible pension income with a spouse to reduce combined household tax owing.
