The mother does not owe income tax, so the father will have deductions for both children

    Did the system give the same amount one for each parent? Once again I am not sure which credit you are speaking of- it would be easier to assist you if I knew.


    The mother did not have any Dependant Credits transferred to her non-refundable tax credits since her taxable income is less than her Basic personal amount -- she does not owe income taxes.

    There are 2 Dependants whose Dependant Credits should be transferred to the father's non-refundable tax credits and included in his Basic personal amount.

    The children's ages are:  Dependant #1 is 6 years & 8 months and Dependant #2 is 7 months old as of

    I see only 1 Dependent Credit added into the father's personal credit ($16,143 + $4,519 = $20,662)

    Please transfer the 2nd Dependent Credit of $4,519 into the father's personal credit to equal the following

    $16,143 + $4,519 + $4,519 = $25,181.
