Use this form to calculate your capital gains deduction on line 25400 of your return if:
- You disposed of qualified farm or fishing property (QFFP) or qualified small business corporation shares (QSBCS) in 2024
-
You are reporting an amount from a 2023 reserve in 2024 from the disposition of QFFP or QSBCS
For definitions of qualified farm or fishing property and qualified small business corporation shares, see Guide T4037, Capital Gains.
Notes:
You must be a resident of Canada throughout 2024 to be eligible to claim the capital gains deduction. For the purpose
of this deduction, you are deemed to be a resident throughout 2024 if you were a resident of Canada at any time in
2024 and throughout 2023 or 2025.
Deferred capital gains from the disposition of QSBCS do not qualify for this deduction and should have been reported at
lines 10689, 10690, 13199, and 13200 instead of lines 10683, 10684, 10699 and 10700 (for more information see Guide T4037,
Capital Gains).

Capital gains deduction limit
For 2024, there are two lifetime capital gains exemption (LCGE) limits:
-
For dispositions in Period 1 from January 1 to June 24, 2024, the limit is $1,016,836.
-
For dispositions in Period 2 from June 25 to December 31, 2024, the limit is $1,250,000.
If you disposed of QFFP, QSBCS, or claimed a reserve for a disposition of QFFP or QSBCS in a previous tax year you may be
eligible for the lifetime capital gains exemption (LCGE).
For dispositions of QFFP or QSBCS at any time in 2024, only half of the capital gain is included in your taxable capital gains,
so the cumulative capital gains deduction is limited to half of the LCGE amount available
For dispositions of QFFP after April 20, 2015 and before January 1, 2024, the LCGE is increased to $1,000,000.
This additional deduction does not apply to dispositions of QSBCS. There is no additional deduction for QFFP in 2024.
