Guide for the simplified T1 General and Schedule 1


Line 121

Interest income

If you have earned interest on your money, you should put an amount here. Complete Schedule 4 to find out how much you should write here. Ask an expert to help you if you're not sure.



Line 145

Social assistance

If you lived with your spouse when you received these payments, then you might not report them here. It depends on which one of you had more net income. The person with more net income should report the social assistance benefits. Ask an expert to help you figure this out.



Line 156, 128 and 220

Support payments

This is a rather complicated matter. If you receive, or make, support payments, ask an expert to help you figure out what you should enter here.



Line 208

RRSP deduction

If you put money into an RRSP, you should write something here. Fill out Schedule 7 to find out how much to write here.



Line 219

Moving expenses

If you moved to start a new job, or to go to university or college, then write on this line how much it cost you to move. You must have moved at least 40 kilometres from where you used to live. You will have to fill out a special form (T1-M) if you claim this amount. Ask an expert to help you figure this out.



Line 250

Other payments reduction

If you entered workers' compensation social assistance, or net federal supplements payments on lines 144, 145, and 146, you enter them again here, and this will reduce your taxable income.
