(1)	If this is a new claim for the disability amount, attach a completed and certified Form T2201, Disability Tax Credit Certificate, to your paper return. Before assessing your return, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will review your claim to see if your spouse or common-law partner is eligible for the disability tax credit. If they were eligible for 2023 and still meet the requirements in 2024, you do not need to send the CRA a new Form T2201 to claim this amount. However, you must send the CRA a new Form T2201 if the previous period of approval ended before 2024 or if the CRA asks you to.

(2)	The maximum tuition amount your spouse or common-law partner can transfer to you is $5,000 minus the current year amounts they use, even if there is still an unused part for the year. Your spouse or common-law partner cannot transfer to you any tuition, education, or textbook amounts carried forward from a previous year.
