Nearly 500,000 Canadians that are eligible for the Disability Tax Credit (DTC) are not receiving the disability benefits they are entitled to.
Check out these DTC stats, courtesy of Statistic Canada and the Canada Revenue Agency, which emphasizes a clear need for assistance in terms of accessibility and awareness in disability benefits for Canada’s disability community.
We cannot stress this enough: it is possible to apply for the Disability Tax Credit on your own.
However, if you are living with a disability or serious illness, or are the caregiver for someone who is differently-abled that needs consistent care, The Association of Canadians Disability Benefit Professionals can educate, assist, and fight for you if you need experienced, professional assistance.
We also help those who have been unfairly declined, with our member companies successfully appealing 66% of unjust Disability Tax Credit cases.
Additionally, the Disability Tax Credit is retroactive for up to 10 years, can be transferred to different caregivers across disparate years, and can even be applied for posthumously. Members of our Association will work with you to ensure that you are receiving the maximum Disability Tax Credit amount possible - which in some cases, can be up to $50,000.
