you are not allowed to claim the caregiver amount (line315) because the dependant must be a resident in Canada not only visiting you.
Please check with General Income Tax and Benefit Guide 2004 on page 35

Copied from CRA website.
Are you eligible for the caregiver amount?
If, at any time of the year, you (either alone or with another person) maintained a dwelling where you and an eligible dependant lived, you may be able to claim this amount. The dependant must have been one of the following individuals:
your or your spouse or common-law partner's child or grandchild; or
your or your spouse or common-law partner's brother, sister, niece, nephew, aunt, uncle, parent, or grandparent who was resident in Canada.
In addition, your dependant must have met all of the following conditions. The person must have:
been 18 or over at the time he or she lived with you;
had a net income of less than $16,705 (line 236 of his or her return, or what line 236 would be if he or she filed a return); and
been dependent on you due to mental or physical infirmity or, if he or she is your or your spouse or common-law partner's parent or grandparent, born in 1939 or earlier.
You cannot claim this amount for a person who was only visiting you.
If you were required to make support payments for a child, you cannot claim an amount on line 315 for that child. However, if you were separated from your spouse or common-law partner for only part of 2004 due to a breakdown in your relationship, you can still claim an amount for that child on line 315 (plus any allowable amounts on line 305 and line 318) as long as you do not claim any support amounts paid to your spouse or common-law partner on line 220. You may claim whichever is better for you.

关于这个问题，我曾经向CRA咨询过，他们给我的答案是绝对不可以CLAIM。
我想这大概也是你想知道的最终答案吧！
如果你申请Caregiver，或许你能得到退款，但这是不合税法要求的。千万不要忘了CRA可以审查你7年的税务情况（今年他们特别注重小生意的税务审查）到时你不但要退还这部份钱还要加上利息。如果你的行为是故意的话还要面临罚款。
如果你们对我的答案还有怀疑的话，请不妨打个电话1－800－959－8281亲自咨询一下CRA。
是你的利益千万别放弃，不是你的不要硬争取！

Have you claimed the caregiver before? Or, just made some phone call? If you did not go through this yourself, how do you so certain that we are giving wrong suggestion. I claimed this several years in a row now. Every year has been reviewed, and never had any problem. Only one year CCRA refused my claim after review. However, I won the appeal. It is true that many CCRA employee do not know this. That only means CCRA did not educate their employee enough. Try to talk to their manager. At that level, you will pretty much get a certain answer.
One suggestion to you: If you had similar situation, instead of accusing other people here, you should file a tax modification to get your money back. Just like you said 是你的利益千万别放弃.
