报税时是否可以将来探亲的父母算成dependants?

[Civic]

问题越来越复杂。不知道该怎么办了？

如果你要Claim的话，是不是会问你他们的SIN?

我的个人倾向是不可以报，因为，他们过来的目的是Visit. 我前面的帖子抄自CRA来看 "You cannot claim this amount for a person who was only visiting you."

If you call two or more representatives at CRA at different times, you will get different answers each time where some say you can and others say no.

No, they won't ask for SIN, only name, address and relationship with you.

How do you define the difference between visiting you and staying with you? Do you normally pay air ticket for your visitor? Do you normally buy health insurance and pay medical expense for your visitor? Does your visitor normally stay more than half year in your home and take care of your kids? Do you normally leave your visitor at home to cook for you and you go to work? Therefore, the visiting parents are more than only visiting you, but stay with you.

All the manager level gave me the same answer every time I called. I do think CCRA need to do more work to educate their employee.

I believe the VISA issued only for "Visit"/"Study"/"work"/"Immigrate" 4 categories, please check www.cic.gc.ca .

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.

谢谢fuzzy.

谢谢FUZZY给我的建议和提供他（她）个人的实际经验！

在这里能否告诉我们：
1.你父母来加拿大探亲是否持Visit visa从中国来或是从其他国家（如美国）？
2.在CRA Review你的时候，让你提供什么样的证据（如Passport、机票、Extended Visa ...）。

从论坛的讨论中我们不难看出很多人对此很感兴趣，大家也为自己的利益想知道一个正确的答案，在此我有一个不请之请：能否告诉我你的Appeal Number。因为你的上诉成功表示你的CASE已成为一个范例。如果以后有同样情况发生而被CRA拒绝的话，你的CASE将成为所有人胜诉的蓝本（因为在Ontario是Common Law System 即Case Law）。我想有很多人都会有我一样的要求！

在此再次表示感谢！
