This includes contributions to unrelated licensed child-care operators to create additional or improve existing facilities.

The Benefit

For a corporation, WCCTI is an additional 30% deduction for qualifying expenditures for the taxation year. A business's qualifying expenditures for a taxation year are expenditures incurred after May 5, 1998 and before January 1, 2005.

How to Apply

The WCCTI is a deduction in calculating Ontario taxable income. The amount of the WCCTI is claimed on Line 666 of the tax return.
