Need help in filling CCTB form

[alikhan24]

Hello Everyone,

I am a Canadian PR and my wife is an international student on a student visa. I need to apply for CCTB but am unable to understand the twisted language and terms used in the form. I searched this forum for any post about filling RC66, 'Status in Canada/Statement of Income' form but could not find any related post. I would be grateful if someone could help me with this.

PART B - Residency Status:

Do I have to provide the date I first became the resident of Canada. I became a PR in Oct 2006?
Am I a new resident or a returning resident?
Do I have to provide the date my wife landed in Canada as her residency date? She is still not a permanent resident though.

PART D - Immigration Status:

Do I have to provide the date for which I need to get the benefit? or complete period of my PR status?
My wife section needs to be empty here ? because she is not eligible and since I am already applying.
No information about my wife needs to be provided in the Temporary resident section because she has been in Canada for the last 5 months only?

PART E - Status of Income:

Do I need to provide my last Tax return form ?

Any help would be highly appreciated.


Thanks and Regards,
Ali

yeah looks like noone knows what exactly is this? Even i don't know what this CCTB is? You might wanna contact immigration department if it is related to immigration?

What is CCTB btw?

Hi,

I thought the abbreviation would be very common ... Its Canada Child Tax Benefit ...

PART B - Residency Status:

Do I have to provide the date I first became the resident of Canada. I became a PR in Oct 2006?- yes
Am I a new resident or a returning resident?- did you leave Canada for a long period of time after you became PR? If yes, you are a returning resident
Do I have to provide the date my wife landed in Canada as her residency date? She is still not a permanent resident though.- If you are the applicant, this questin refers to you.

PART D - Immigration Status:

My wife section needs to be empty here ? because she is not eligible and since I am already applying.- empty because she is not PR yet
No information about my wife needs to be provided in the Temporary resident section because she has been in Canada for the last 5 months only? Yes

PART E - Status of Income:

Do I need to provide my last Tax return form ?- You don't need to. If you filed your tax returns in Canada in the previous years, they will have records of these.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hi,

I need help in filling "Status in Canada / Statement of Income".

On this form, Part E: Statement of Income, for the spouse/ common law partner's income, i am confused what i should enter here.

My wife will be the applicant, so "for your income" she will be putting in 0 for the year 2016, 2015 and 2014.

But I am a PR since 2012. So for the "Spouse/Common law partner's income" field,
1) should I enter my income for the year 2016 until today?
The section actually says, enter your and your spouse's income from January 1 of that year to the date he or she became a resident. But I am a resident of Canada since 2012. So, i am confused what to do here.
2) Should i leave the Spouse/ Common law partner's income blank as I filed taxes for the all the previous years 2015, 2014, 2013 etc. or do i have to fill in my income for these years?
I am confused, as the form says "Do not include income that you or your spouse have reported on a Canadian Income tax and benefit return".

Please help!

Thanks,
Sridhar.

hi Ali , yes. you and your wife will provide the date when you come first time in canada .
yes, you and your wife will provide last t4s.
normally mother apply for all this process.
mother provide her bank account and they send directly in mother account.
normally when you will apply for cctb then cra pay for all of last year.
i think you must provide detail of last three years about your and your wife income.
