Disability tax credit (DTC)

Due to higher than normal intake volume, the Canada Revenue Agency is experiencing delays in processing Form T2201, Disability Tax Credit Certificate. We will respond in writing once a decision has been made. You can view the status of your application through the progress tracker in your CRA account

The disability tax credit (DTC) is a non-refundable tax credit that helps people with disabilities, or their supporting family member, reduce the amount of income tax they may have to pay.

If you have a severe and prolonged impairment, you may apply for the credit. If you are approved, you may claim the credit at tax time.

By reducing the amount of income tax you may have to pay, the DTC aims to offset some of the extra costs related to the impairment.
