Hi CD's,

Just wondering what would be the definition of Gross Household Income?

Does it include Children benefits?


Thanks in advance,

Different people have different income streams and a few have multiple income streams and hence.....

On Page 2 of your T1 General, they have listed a whole page full, dedicating it to the Income. You will have to go through each line to see if you have one to fill. In your case, and to answer your question.... You go to line 117 Universal Child Care Benefit or UCCB and fill in the amount that was received and fill it on that particular line. When you add up all of the lines on Page 2, that should tell you how much was your total income. That total income is reflected on line 150 at the bottom of that page.

Also, some of us have child care expenses too, like baby sitting charges (with proper receipts) and other locations where we drop babies and pay for their care etc., can also be deducted too.

When we are filling in the return, we also should look into the Benefit Guide too. They give the proper explanations in that book and for EACH line with numbers. And if you don't understand it, then you can call and ask them for an explanation and any other queries that you might have too.
