Disability Tax Credit Refunds and Retroactive Adjustments
Some approved DTC cases may allow prior-year tax adjustments, depending on the approval period, tax returns, and whether the credit can be used by the applicant or a supporting family member.
Be cautious of anyone promising a specific refund amount before reviewing tax history and CRA approval details.
What affects retroactive value?
- The years approved by CRA.
- Taxable income in those years.
- Whether any unused amount may be transferred to a supporting person.
- Whether related benefits or programs become available.
