How to fill Form T2201 (Disability Tax Credit Certificate) — and autofill your details with my-id.ca
Fill Part A of the Disability Tax Credit Certificate (T2201) without retyping your details
Form T2201 — Disability Tax Credit Certificate is how you apply to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) for the disability tax credit (DTC), for yourself or a dependant. The form has two parts: Part A (you or your representative) and Part B (a medical practitioner). This guide is an example of storing the Part A identity fields in my-id.ca — it is not tax or medical advice, and my-id.ca is not affiliated with the CRA or the Government of Canada.
Official form and source
Start from the official CRA source and always use the current version — form numbers and links can change:
- Form (CRA): T2201 Disability Tax Credit Certificate — canada.ca
- How to apply: Disability tax credit — how to apply — canada.ca
What this form is about
T2201 certifies that a person has a severe and prolonged impairment so the CRA can grant the disability tax credit. Part A identifies the applicant (and the person claiming the credit, if different). Part B is the medical certification — only a qualified medical practitioner can complete it.
Who fills it
The applicant or their legal representative completes Part A; a medical practitioner completes Part B. The repeating fields are in Part A — the applicant's name, address, and SIN, exactly the kind of details my-id.ca stores once.
Before you start: what to gather
- The applicant's full legal name, address, and SIN (and the claimant's details, if someone else claims the credit).
- Your medical practitioner's information, so they can complete and certify Part B.
