Expert Help With Your T2201 Disability Tax Credit Form
The T2201 is the single most important document in your DTC application. We coordinate with your medical practitioner to ensure every section is completed using CRA-aligned functional language — so your application has the strongest possible chance of approval.
Our fee is 25% of retroactive refunds only — collected after approval. No upfront costs. If your application is not approved, you pay nothing.
The T2201 Is Where Most DTC Applications Fail
The T2201 Disability Tax Credit Certificate is a CRA form that must be completed by a qualified medical practitioner. It asks specific questions about how your condition affects your ability to perform basic activities of daily living — walking, dressing, feeding, speaking, hearing, seeing, and managing your own care.
The challenge is that CRA's criteria are not clinical. A medically accurate description of your condition may still be insufficient if it doesn't use the specific functional language CRA requires. This is the single biggest reason DTC applications are denied.
What the T2201 Form Requires
Part A — Patient Information
Basic identification details completed by the applicant. Errors here can delay processing.
Part B — Certification by Medical Practitioner
The critical section. Your practitioner must describe how your condition restricts specific activities of daily living using CRA's functional criteria — not just clinical terminology.
Effects of Impairment
CRA requires detailed descriptions of duration, frequency, and severity. Vague answers like 'sometimes has difficulty' are insufficient.
Life-Sustaining Therapy
If applicable, your practitioner must document therapy type, frequency (3+ times/week), and time spent (14+ hours/week including preparation).
Why T2201 Forms Get Rejected
These are the most common T2201 errors we correct for our clients.
Clinical Language Instead of Functional
Writing 'patient has ADHD' instead of describing how ADHD restricts the ability to manage personal affairs, remember appointments, or maintain focus for daily tasks.
Missing 'All or Substantially All of the Time'
CRA requires that restrictions be present all or substantially all of the time (≥90%). Omitting this qualifier is one of the most common T2201 errors.
Doctor Unfamiliar with CRA Requirements
Most physicians are trained to diagnose and treat — not to translate clinical findings into CRA's specific eligibility framework. This isn't a failing; it's a knowledge gap we bridge.
Incomplete Sections or Missing Signatures
Leaving sections blank, providing inconsistent dates, or missing practitioner signatures causes automatic rejection before clinical review even begins.
