The Disability Tax Credit (DTC) form (T2201) can be found by clicking here. There are two parts of the DTC form. Part A must be filled out by the person with the disability (or their legal representative) and Part B must be filled out by a medical professional. There are two methods to fill out the form either electronically or manually. Regardless of the methods that are used both parts must be filled out before submitting the form to your nearest tax centre. The applicant is responsible for any fees that the medical professional may charge; however, you may be able to claim these fees on your tax return.
WHAT IS THE APPLICATION PROCESS?
There is a three-step process for the DTC application.
Step 1: CRA received the completed and signed form.
Step 2:
Based on the information provided by the medical professional the Canada Revenue Agency will determine your eligibility. Should they require additional information CRA will either contact the applicant or their medical professional.
Step 3: CRA will send you a notice of determination and, if approved, will show what years the DTC can be claimed. If you are denied there are additional steps that you can take to appeal. This will be included in the notice of assessment.
