Question

Can we change it to have the unused amount back to the lower income spouse so that they are claiming all of the Saskatchewan Dependent claim?

    @Twiggs The Saskatchewan dependent child credit has to be claimed by the lower earning spouse first. Any credit not used by the lower earning spouse will automatically be transferred to the higher earning spouse.

    So there is no way to change that? I have a substantial amount owing and claiming the full Saskatchewan Dependent amount would reduce that.

    No, there is no way to change it.
