DescriptionThe disability amount is a non-refundable tax credit used to reduce tax payable for eligible individuals. If you are eligible for the Disability tax Credit (DTC), you may be able to claim the disability amount on your income tax and benefit return.  
 
Note 
If you receive Canada Pension Plan or Quebec Pension Plan disability benefits, workers' compensation benefits, or other types of disability or insurance benefits, it does not necessarily mean you are eligible for the DTC. These programs have other purposes and different criteria, such as an individual's inability to work.
