CDB and the Disability Tax Credit (DTC)

1. We know that the DTC is a requirement for the CDB.

2. We know that the budget announced that the government will pay medical professionals for completing their part of the forms.

3.⁠ ⁠That process has not been finalized yet – do not pay for medicals hoping that you will be reimbursed, because that is not the case.

If you would like to start to apply, you can find the government website here.

There are organizations that provide free detailed information or help you fill out the form – we will add to this list as we find more of them across the country. For now,  Plan Institute is a place to start.
