Disability tax credit transfer to parent

I have a new client with a child who qualifies for the disability tax credit. The child has no income. The software is automatically transferring the credit to the father. I would rather the credit be claimed by the mother. How can I change which parent is receiving the transfer?

I recommend that you call  our support line 1-800-452-9970 for this one. Its working for me when I try it, so they will want to investigate more. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thank you for this!  I couldn't figure this out either.  Adding a checkbox in the Dependant's page would be great, similar to the CTB and the Family Caregiver questions, asking who's to claim it.

...and remembering to also override the Provincial Credit form!

go to the "dependant" tab on the father's return. zero out the disability transfer amount. it will automatically slot it in for the mother.
