Box 046 - Charitable donations

You can claim donations made by either you or your spouse or common-law partner.

Enter your claim on line 349 of Schedule 1, Federal Tax, from the calculation on Schedule 9, Donations and Gifts.

Note
It may be more beneficial for you not to claim them for this year, but to carry them forward and claim them on your return for any of the next five years.

If you have any questions about the amounts shown on your T4A slip, contact the issuer of the slip.
