2. On the first Personal Profile screen, answer Yes to the question "Were you a student or did you have student expenses for yourself in previous years?"
   
3. Select all the checkboxes that apply and click Continue.

You'll enter your information in the Deductions section of the Interview.

5. Select the person to whom you are transferring this amount.
6. On the Transfer Tuition and Education (Provincial) screen, enter the amount you want to transfer, up to the maximum allowed.

STEP 1
Enter tuition receipts on the student's return.

1. From the View menu, choose Tax Info (T-Slips).
   The T-slip entry window opens.
2. For T2202/2202A or TL11 slips: On the left side of the T-slip entry window, click Federal slips, then click T2202/A. The T2202/2202A entry window opens.
   For other tuition receipts: On the left side of the T-slip entry window, click Receipts, then click Tuition. The Tuition fees entry window opens.
3. Enter the tuition as reported on your T2202A slip and other official receipts, then click Save & Close.

STEP 2
Indicate on Schedule 11, the amount you want to transfer, and the person you are transferring it to.

1. Select the Forms icon at the top of the page.
2. In the Keyword to search for field, type S11.
3. In the Forms list, select Schedule 11 - Federal Tuition and Education Amounts and click OK.
   The Federal Schedule 11 opens.
4. In the Transfer/Carry forward of unused amount section of the form, click one of the checkboxes above line 18 to indicate who you are transferring to (your spouse or common-law partner, or your parent or grandparent).
5. On line 24, enter the amount you want to transfer federally.
6. If you want to transfer provincial amounts as well, repeat these steps for the Provincial Schedule 11 form. If you transfer provincial amounts, it must be to the same person as your federal transfer.
   
   Important! Do not enter tuition slips a second time. Federal and Provincial tuition amounts are separate credits that are based on the same tuition fee.
