Can anyone else claim the disability amount for you?

You may be able to transfer all or part of your disability amount (and, if it applies, the supplement) to your spouse or common-law partner or to another supporting person.

Claim the disability amount by entering it on the applicable line of the income tax and benefit return:

• line 316 - Disability amount (for self);
• line 318 - Disability amount transfered from a dependant; or
• line 326 - Amounts transferred from your spouse or common-law partner.

A dependant can be your or your spouse's or common-law partner's parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, brother, sister, uncle, aunt, nephew or niece.
