claimed under this heading. In Manitoba the fitness credit is<br />
valid to age 23 on the provincial return.<br />
Childcare:<br />
costs are deductible if they allow both parents to work and<br />
be unavailable to the children. If both parents are involved in<br />
a family business this maybe an opportunity to have a ‘nanny’<br />
paid for outside of regular school hours. Maybe ‘baba/babusia’<br />
can be paid. A potential claim is possible if set up properly.<br />
This category saw an increase of $1000 for each child in<br />
2015 if the amount was spent.<br />
Opportunities may even exist that haven’t been looked into<br />
when multiple generations live in the same household. Personal<br />
exemptions should be arranged such that they allow the<br />
actual living arrangements to create a large tax credit for the<br />
household. Very large refunds are possible under Canada’s<br />
‘Fairness Legislation” if missed in previous years.<br />
Moving expenses:<br />
are available where the taxpayer has earned an income in<br />
a new work location in Canada that is at least 40 km closer<br />
to this location. Rules can apply to students who move to attend<br />
a post-secondary education facility in either Canada or<br />
outside Canada.<br />
The First-time Home Buyers’ tax Credit:<br />
can be used by a person, their spouse or common-law partners,<br />
who haven’t owned a home in the current or preceding<br />
four years.<br />
The Public Transit Amount:<br />
s a deduction for those of you, or for your qualified children,<br />
who have an eligible public transit pass. However, documentation<br />
and receipts must be maintained and collected throughout<br />
the year.<br />
Medical expenses:<br />
are an area typically neglected by taxpayers. This is especially<br />
true when these expenses exceed 3 % of Net Income and<br />
the taxpayer forgets or isn’t aware that employee paid Dental<br />
and Extended Health premiums are also eligible for this deduction.<br />
There are numerous other credits and techniques available<br />
to accurately assess your tax and reduce the amount left for<br />
Ottawa to spend. Finding and working with a knowledgeable<br />
tax practitioner is the best place to start.<br />
