Main Topics
-
Disability Tax Credit using Life Sustaining Therapy Clause (Barb Chafe will
share her experience and success applying for the tax credit based on the use of an insulin pump as Life Sustaining
Therapy, going through the Appeals process, and going to the Tax Court of Canada (if necessary). Is this something
you should consider applying for? Is is applicable for children and adults? That is for you to decide. We hope
information shared with you will help you make that decision.
Various other topics related to Insulin Dependent Diabetes and/or Pump Therapy.
Educational and Informational handouts about insulin pump therapy are available at each
meeting.
