Disability Tax Credit
We believe that having ADHD that has been impairing should qualify a person for the Disability Tax Credit (DTC).
The DTC application forms at the Adult ADHD Centre are completed and signed by the founder, Dr. Gurdeep Parhar, MD, CCFP, CCBOM, CIME.
Dr. Parhar has certification as a Disability Medicine and Occupational Medicine Physician with 30 years of experience assisting patients with a wide range of disabilities.
The purpose of the DTC is to provide for greater tax equity by allowing some relief for disability costs since these are unavoidable additional expenses for persons with disabilities that other taxpayers do not have to face.

While we cannot guarantee what will happen in any particular person’s situation, our experience is that patients with confirmed ADHD have received thousands of dollars in past taxes refunded to them, and they have also saved tax payments in future years.
Our experience is that simply having an ADHD diagnosis is not enough to meet the criteria to have the DTC approved.
In addition to having an ADHD diagnosis confirmed, it is important to be able to explain how ADHD has affected various parts of someone’s life.
The Adult ADHD Centre Founder will complete the Disability Tax Credit Application Form, explaining how ADHD is causing disability that would qualify for the Disability Tax Credit. We only complete the PDF/paper version of the Disability Tax Credit application form, not the online application form.

Being eligible for the DTC can open the door to other federal, provincial, or territorial programs such as the Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP), the Canada Workers Benefit (CWB), and the Child Disability Benefit (CDB). Applying for these additional plans can help financially in other ways. For example, if you apply for the RDSP, the government will pay a matching grant of 300%, 200%, or 100%, depending on the beneficiary’s adjusted family net income and the amount contributed.
How Do I Apply For The ADHD Disability Tax Credit?
Applying for the Disability Tax Credit can be intimidating and confusing, which is why many people who decide to do it on their own have their application denied. It is important to be able to explain how ADHD has affected various aspects of someone’s life, and with our expertise on your diagnoses and impairments, we can accomplish this.
Having the founder of the Adult ADHD Centre complete your Disability Tax Credit (DTC) form, detailing how ADHD impacts daily functioning, can improve your chances of approval. Please note: We only complete the PDF/paper version of the DTC form, not the online application.
- Applying for the credit – To apply, you will need certification from a medical practitioner confirming the impact of your impairment. This can be provided by your family physician, a psychologist, or the Adult ADHD Centre, if you have previously undergone an assessment and received an ADHD diagnosis there.
- Claiming the credit on your tax return –If your application is approved, you may then claim the disability amount on your tax return.
