给父母探亲访问期间买的医疗保险费用可以报税吗?

A Canadian resident is defined as a person whose primary residence is in any part of Canada who is not an Ontario resident and who has lived in Canada for a period of at least six consecutive months during the 12 months

请问这个的出处在哪里?
 
即使你认为你父母属于Temparory Residents, 那也不符合下面一条:

General Income Tax and Benefit Guide - 2008 : Federal non-refundable tax credits (Schedule 1)

Line 331 - Allowable amount of medical expenses for other dependants

Claim the part of eligible medical expenses you or your spouse or common-law partner paid for the following persons who depended on you for support on line 331:
  • your or your spouse's or common-law partner's child who was born in 1990 or earlier, or grandchild; or
  • your or your spouse's or common-law partner's parent, grandparent, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, niece, or nephew who was a resident of Canada at any time in the year.
The expenses must meet the criteria in the section called "Eligible medical expenses" at line 330. Also, the claim must be for the same 12-month period that was determined at line 330.
Under proposed changes, the list of "Eligible medical expenses" has been expanded.
For more details, see Guide RC4064, Medical and Disability-Related Information. This guide includes Form T2201.
 
问一下CRA吧,呵呵,每个人的理解都不一样。
另外, 以前有人报了并成功的。可能是因为这样报是对的,也有可能是税务局没有查这部分。
再另外,如果买保险的receipt上付款人是楼主的名字,我觉得这部分费用应该算在楼上的medical expense里面而不是你父母的medical expense里面。不然万一CRA查的话就会有问题。当然,也有可能CRA根本不会查这点。还是弄清楚一点好。

说得对!CRA不查你是你幸运,如果查到你,除了补税、罚款外,以后年年查你。

你自己凭常识都觉得有问题,还那样报,你不是在找自己的麻烦吗?
 
拜托,报税是由Canada Revenue Agency管的,不是由安省自然资源部管的!

钓鱼的时候,须按安省自然资源部的规定买证。:p

问的时候,说清楚是访问者,没有SIN,在加居住时间等。

[FONT=宋体] 本人是保险经纪,在加拿大办理探亲保险业务有八年以上的历史,我来谈谈对这个问题的理解:[/FONT]
[FONT=宋体]最初还是我的顾客打电话到国税局后,告诉我税务局的接电话的人讲:探亲保险费可以在报税时加到家庭的医疗费用中。后来也有其他顾客致电国税局,得到的回答是否定的。本人的看法是不同的接线生,他们的业务水平及培训效果可能会有差别。我还专门咨询了专业会计师,也没得到肯定的回答。想必是报税说明([/FONT]GUIDE[FONT=宋体])不甚明确吧![/FONT]
[FONT=宋体]记得多年前,探亲来的老人还可办理[/FONT]SIN[FONT=宋体],听说是[/FONT]9[FONT=宋体]字头的,如停留时间够的话,我的不少顾客还在给老人报税后,因老人没收入而得到[/FONT]GST [FONT=宋体]退税款!后来听说短期来的不再给办理[/FONT]SIN [FONT=宋体]了。[/FONT]
[FONT=宋体]应该说明的是,我本人不是会计师,虽查阅了有关税务资料,但并未有给探亲者的保险费报税的经历。我本人建议为居住时间较长(半年以上)的探亲者,将保险费加在[/FONT]331[FONT=宋体]项目中报税。[/FONT][FONT=宋体]我的理由是:[/FONT]
1[FONT=宋体],身份问题,[/FONT][FONT=宋体]关键在于探亲者在报税年度里是不是“[/FONT]a resident of Canada at any time in the year[FONT=宋体]”?[/FONT][FONT=宋体]加拿大税务规定:你如在加拿大住满[/FONT]183[FONT=宋体]天的话,你可能被视为“[/FONT]deemed resident of Canada for tax purposes[FONT=宋体]”。[/FONT][FONT=宋体][/FONT]331 [FONT=宋体]项目中的[/FONT][FONT=宋体][/FONT]other dependants[FONT=宋体]”,并未如[/FONT]315[FONT=宋体]项目中“[/FONT]Caregiver[FONT=宋体]”的规定“[/FONT]You cannot claim this amount for a person who was only visiting you.[FONT=宋体]”[/FONT]
2 [FONT=宋体],税务方面,应尽量争取该得到的。你报了这笔费用[/FONT][FONT=宋体],[/FONT][FONT=宋体]如不被准许,也没损失什么。如果没报此项也许该得到的退税就失去了。[/FONT][FONT=宋体]我的不少顾客若干年都是如此做的,还未听说那位事后有问题。[/FONT]
[FONT=宋体]此外,报税中[/FONT]330[FONT=宋体],[/FONT]331[FONT=宋体]项目是以家庭为单位的,在夫妻双方中收入较低的一方报这一项比较有利,如收入低的那一方收入接近或低于缴税的水平,就只能在收入高的一方去报了。报了[/FONT]330[FONT=宋体],[/FONT]331[FONT=宋体]税项的效果,减(退)税的多少是取决于收入水平及合计医疗费用的多少有直接关系。[/FONT]

[FONT=宋体]每年报税季节,本人的电话非常多,不少顾客都来咨询保费报税的问题。我仍然建议顾客们如符合条件,尽量将探亲者保险费用来报税。如有哪位顾客或朋友在报了该项费用后,被税务局要求更改的话,麻烦你给我(柯思纯)打个电话:[/FONT]613-722-5005 [FONT=宋体]。本人将万分感激,也能使我在今后的业务中,为顾客提供更准确更有利的建议。谢谢![/FONT]

关键是,resident of Canada的定义。

我想[FONT=宋体]柯思纯的说法对,[/FONT]放在331做expense报可以,对收入较低的有意义,对高收入除非买的保险费用超过$1962, 超过的那部分保费可以退一部分税
 
[FONT=宋体]我的不少顾客若干年都是如此做的,还未听说那位事后有问题。[/FONT]
请问你的顾客是电子报税还是纸张报税?电子报税因为不需要收据,所以这类问题当时发现不了;如果是纸张报税,这类问题立刻就被发现了。

[FONT=宋体]你报了这笔费用[/FONT][FONT=宋体],[/FONT][FONT=宋体]如不被准许,也没损失什么[/FONT][FONT=宋体]。[/FONT]
如果是纸张报税,不被准许,是没有什么损失,最多补税外加利息;但如果是电子报税,因为当时发现不了,就准许了。不过,以后发现时,除了补税,还要罚款,外加进入税务局的黑名单。

税务局为什么要你把所有收据保存6年呢?因为税务局知道有10%电子报税是错的。那为什么还要采取电子报税呢?因为都纸张报税的话税务局忙不过来,所以只好抽查。那么抽查哪些人呢?华人首当其冲,因为华人聪明。你一旦进入税务局的黑名单,。。。。。。
 
[FONT=宋体]1,我没看出用手工报税和电子报税在[/FONT] 331[FONT=宋体]项目上有何区别,因为就是手工报税也不用将保费收据附上。[/FONT]
[FONT=宋体]“[/FONT]If you are filing a paper return, include your receipts and any receipts for the person that you are claiming (other than for premiums paid to a health services plan, which you should keep in case we ask to see them) and other documents. [FONT=宋体]”[/FONT]
[FONT=宋体]2,在身份上,探亲访问者在办理签证时的类别为:[/FONT]”Temporary Resident Visa”[FONT=宋体];当这些人在加拿大住满[/FONT]183[FONT=宋体]天后,在税务上应视为:“[/FONT]deemed resident of Canada for tax purposes[FONT=宋体]。“[/FONT]If you are a deemed resident of Canada for the tax year, you: can claim all deductions and non-refundable tax credits that apply to you[FONT=宋体]”[/FONT]http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/tx/nnrsdnts/ndvdls/dmd-eng.html
[FONT=宋体]3,如在[/FONT]331 [FONT=宋体]项下报保险费用有何不妥的话,也是[/FONT][FONT=宋体]国税局的报税说明([/FONT]GUIDE[FONT=宋体])不明确造成。[/FONT][FONT=宋体]未如[/FONT]315[FONT=宋体]项目中“[/FONT]Caregiver [FONT=宋体]”的明确指出:“[/FONT]You cannot claim this amount for a person who was only visiting you.[FONT=宋体]”[/FONT]
[FONT=宋体]4,此外,老人的保险费是你付的,而且他们是依靠你生活,所以这些保险费用应在你的税表中报。“[/FONT]Claim the part of eligible medical expenses you or your spouse or common-law partner paid……”
[FONT=宋体]5,如因理解问题而非有意偷漏税的话,谈不上所谓上黑名单,这种情况也上什么黑名单的话,国税局不用干别的事了!国税局的人力有限,查税的重点是本着看其是否为屡犯及明知故犯,而且要视其是否能扣回的金额及所花费的人工成本有关。没必要自己吓自己![/FONT]
[FONT=宋体]6,是否将合乎条件的保险费用在[/FONT]331[FONT=宋体]项下报税,应是个人的权利和选择。我们这里是根据过去的经验给顾客提建议,并不能保证这种做法[/FONT]100%[FONT=宋体]准确。[/FONT]
[FONT=宋体]如国税局电话中心的人告诉我,保费不能在[/FONT]331[FONT=宋体]项下报税的话,我将要求他们提供相关的依据,并将报税说明更改得更明确。[/FONT]
 
I claimed parent as dependent couple of years ago. CRA had some questions about it and I sent all their required documents, then everything was set.

To claim your parent as eligible dependent, they have to meet all of the following conditions:
1. They are at least 65 years old,
2. or, they are infirmed if they are younger than 65 (which means you have to live together with them and take care of them, you need to provide doctor note if needed),
3. They must live in Canada for more than 183 days during the tax year (Jan. 1 to Dec. 31),
4. They need to have SIN (I applied for my mother the first week she visited me in Canada).

If all conditions above are met, you can claim about ~$4000 for eligible dependent (you need to check the Guide to see what is the exact amount). Good luck.

My parents came in Sep last year, I cannot claim the insurance
