我爸妈是移民每年和我们一起住半年，他们现在快68岁
我LG说他昨天听961的广播说家里有同住的65岁以上的父母移民的，我们在报税时可以申请照顾老人的caregiver amount退税，2010 tax year每人有$4223的免税额

我们以前从来没有报过这个，请教大家（为了方便需要了解这方面情况的同学，我把问题和网友答案汇总在下面，麻烦专家有空也帮忙鉴定一下）

1、是不是可以报，报在谁头上，是否要按住的时间折成比例

网友讨论结果：可以报，父母是65岁以上移民且住满183天，父母收入在$18645以下；一般情况报在哪一方都可以，都是一共约20%的tax credit；只要住满183天就可以申请全额免税额

2、我爸妈现在是和我们分开报税的，如果我们报了caregiver amount的话他们还能和我们分开报税吗？

网友讨论结果：可以

3、我们今年的税已经报好了，钱都退回来了，那如果可以申请这个caregiver amount的话还能改吗？

网友讨论结果：可以到税务局网站上登录网上帐号直接更改或者下载更改表格填好寄去。前两年已经报完税的需要更改的也可以用同样方法

4. 更改后如果拿到caregiver amount退税的会不会影响RRSP的额度

网友讨论结果：不会

5. Union妹妹的问题：如果我已经claim父母帮我带孩子的childcare expense并且在他们那里报税，我是否还可以claim caregiver amount

网友讨论结果： 不可以

6. 对于探亲的父母是否能claim这个额度，网友还在热烈讨论中～～～

谢谢大家

谢谢PPPP，

你说的父母作为雇员是指如果我付给他们工资让他们照顾我孩子的话可以在child care的那个地方申请退税吧

可以报的，包括不是移民的父母，我朋友已经报了，但是具体怎么操作，我还得去问问她
