Disability advocates say budget proposals alone won't solve DTC access problems


Rudy Mezzetta
This is the first instalment in a series examining the disability tax credit and related support programs for eligible Canadians.
Disability sector advocates are applauding federal government proposals to improve access to the disability tax credit (DTC) but say the DTC application process remains complex and lacks transparency. Advocates are concerned the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will remain an obstacle when it comes to ensuring those with disabilities receive the support to which they’re eligible.
“Anything to do with clarifying [DTC] eligibility requirements and broadening them is certainly welcome, but the devil will be in the details,” said Peter Weissman, partner at Cadesky and Associates LLP in Toronto and a former co-chair of the federal government’s disability advisory committee (DAC).
