Auto-fill My Return - Carry forwards

Certain deductions cannot be used all at once depending on your tax burden. For example, if you don’t need all of your tuition and education amounts to lower your tax payable to zero, the unused amounts are carried forward for use in future years. Keeping track of these unused amounts can be difficult, especially if you’ve misplaced your Notice of Assessment. With Auto-fill My Return, your carry forward amounts are imported directly to the proper spots in your tax return using your CRA My Account.

Carry forward amounts that are imported with Auto-fill My Return include

• Federal & Provincial Tuition, Education and Textbook credits
• Non-Capital Losses
• Capital Gains and Losses
• Lifetime Capital Gains Deductions

In order to use Auto-fill My Return, you must be a CRA My Account holder. If you don’t already have a CRA My Account, sign up.
