Identification, income, and deductions

Identification

Follow the instructions on the return to complete this area. Providing incomplete or incorrect information may delay the processing of your return, and any refund, credit, or benefit, such as any GST/HST credit and Canada Child Tax Benefit payments to which you may be entitled.

Non-residents electing under section 217 - At the top of page 1 of your return, write "Section 217."

Personal label

If you have a personal label, attach it to your return. If your name, your address, your social insurance number (SIN) or TTN (temporary taxation number), or your spouse or common-law partner's SIN or TTN is incorrect, put a line through the wrong information, and print your changes clearly on the label.

We may modify part of your address to meet Canada Post's requirements. Therefore, the address on your package, your Notice of Assessment, or other correspondence we send you may be different from the one you indicate on your return.

Information about your residence

On the first line, enter "Other" for the province or territory of residence on December 31, 2001.

On the second line, if you were self-employed in 2001, enter the province or territory where you had a permanent business establishment. If you had a permanent business establishment outside Canada, enter "other."

Marital status

Check the box that applied to your status on December 31, 2001. Check "Married" if you had a spouse (see below) or "Living common law" if you had a common-law partner (see later on this page). You still have a spouse or common-law partner if you were living apart for reasons other than a breakdown in your relationship. Check one of the other boxes only if neither of the first two applied.

Spouse

This applies only to a person to whom you are legally married.

Common-law partner

This applies to a person of the same or opposite sex who is not your spouse (see above) when you live and have a relationship with that person. In addition, at least one of the following has to apply. He or she:

• is the natural or adoptive parent (legal or in fact) of your child;
• has been living and having a relationship with you for at least 12 continuous months; or
• lived with you previously as your spouse or common-law partner for at least 12 continuous months.

The above includes any period that you were separated for less than 90 days because of a breakdown in the relationship.
