Don’t Let the Word "Disability" Mislead You.
Many Canadians qualify without realizing it - and we’ll help you every step of the way.
Understanding Eligibility
Eligibility for the Disability Tax Credit (DTC) isn’t based solely on a diagnosis. It depends on how significantly your day-to-day functioning is affected all or most of the time. You may qualify if you experience ongoing difficulty or require assistance with one or more of the following Basic Activities of Daily Living (BADLs):
Walking – Difficulty walking short distances, needing frequent breaks, using mobility aids, or requiring assistance from another person
Feeding – Challenges preparing food, cutting or lifting items, bringing food to your mouth, or taking significantly longer to eat
Dressing – Difficulty putting on or removing clothing, fastening buttons or zippers, or needing help due to pain, stiffness, or coordination issues
Speaking – Being unable to speak clearly, being understood only with effort, or experiencing speech disorders that limit effective communication
Hearing – Difficulty hearing conversations even with hearing aids, relying on lip-reading, or needing repetition to understand speech
Eliminating (using the toilet) – Needing frequent bathroom access, experiencing incontinence, or requiring assistance with toileting
Mental Functions – Significant challenges with memory, attention, judgment, emotional regulation, or daily decision-making (e.g., ADHD, anxiety, depression, brain injury)
Life-Sustaining Therapy – Requiring ongoing therapy to support a vital function, such as insulin therapy, dialysis, oxygen therapy, or chest physiotherapy
Eligibility considers whether these limitations are present almost all of the time, even with treatment, medication, or assistive devices.

Why We Started
Our story began with a personal challenge- a family member was denied the Disability Tax Credit despite clearly meeting the eligibility criteria. As we began speaking with family, friends, and clients, we realized this experience was far from unique. What started as frustration with a complex and often inaccessible system became a clear mission: to help others avoid the same barriers and access the support they deserve.
