Tax Returns: What all can we claim?
I had a random question,

For the tax returns what all can students claim?

I currently have:

-T220 form from MUGSI(For Tuition I'm presuming)
-Textbook receipts
-Rent receipts
-My T4 from work

Am I missing something?

Make sure you also include any monthly or 10-ride GO bus tickets if you use the GO bus.

the McMaster form has the the amount of tuition you can write off. Also you get tax credits for number of months you attended university (full time/part time) for your textbooks so your textbook receipts are not important. I don't know about the rent though.
