Do You Qualify for up to $50,000 from the Disability Tax Credit Program?

The Canadian Disability Tax Credit (DTC) is a non-refundable tax credit that facilitates greater tax equity through financial support. The extra costs for your care, support, or special equipment are unavoidable, additional expenses that other taxpayers don’t face.

Your Disability Tax Credit amount will vary based on your medical condition, how much income tax you’ve paid, and if you have any retroactive DTC claims. Your eligibility is based on your medical practitioner’s diagnosis, and meeting certain criteria outlined below.

Disability Tax Credit Eligibility

Your eligibility for the disability tax credit is dependent on three conditions that must be met:

You must have a severe impairment in physical and/or mental functions.
This impairment must be prolonged such that it has been persistent or will remain persistent for a continuous period of at least one year.
Qualified practitioners need to certify that your impairment is severe and prolonged by completing the Disability Tax Credit Certificate.

Your medical practitioner can only deem you eligible for the DTC if your ability to perform more than one of the following basic activities of living is significantly impaired:

Speaking
Hearing
Walking
Feeding
Dressing
Elimination (Bowel, bladder functions)
Performing the mental functions necessary for daily life

How Much Am I Eligible to Claim?

If you’ve been eligible for a tax refund for years, but never submitted a claim, you can collect your benefits retroactively for up to 10 years. From 2006 to 2016, the maximum disability tax credit amount you can claim retroactively is $17,000 CAD.

If you're taking care of a child with a medical condition, the Child Disability Benefit provides up to $2,730 CAD per year ($227.50/month). Claimed retroactively, you can recover upwards of $50,000 CAD for your child.
