## Alberta benefits for individuals and families
## Alberta child and family benefit
This benefit is a non-taxable amount paid to lower- and
middle-income families with children under 18 years of age.
This program is fully funded by the Province of Alberta. The
annual amount is split into four payments and is paid
separately from the Canada child benefit.
You do not need to apply for the Alberta child and family
benefit. The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will use the
information from your Form RC66, Canada Child Benefit
Application, to determine if you are entitled to receive
this benefit.
## Completing your Alberta form
All the information you need to complete Form AB428,
Alberta Tax and Credits, is included in this document.

your return.

## Part B – Alberta non-refundable tax credits
The eligibility conditions and rules for claiming most Alberta

and calculation of most Alberta non-refundable tax credits
are different from the corresponding federal credits.
Newcomers to Canada and emigrants
As a newcomer or an emigrant, you may be limited in the
amount you can claim for certain provincial non-refundable
tax credits.
If you reduced your claim for any of the following federal
amounts, you also need to reduce your claim for the
corresponding provincial amount in the same way:

their return (or the amount that it would be if they filed a
return) is less than $22,323.

Line 58200 – Amount for infirm dependants
age 18 or older
You can claim up to $12,922 for each of your (or your
spouse’s or common-law partner’s) dependent children or

impairment in physical or mental functions.
You can also claim this amount for more than one person if

partner’s) parent, grandparent, brother, sister, aunt,
uncle, niece, or nephew

- They were dependent on you (or on you and others)
because of an impairment in physical or mental functions
- They were a resident of Canada at any time in the year
Notes
You cannot claim this amount for a person who was
only visiting you.
A parent includes someone you were completely
dependent upon and who had custody and control of you
when you were under 19 years of age.
A child includes someone who is completely dependent
upon you for support and whom you have custody and
control of, even if they are older than you.
You can claim this amount only if the dependant’s net
income from line 23600 of their return (or the amount that it

claim an amount on line 58200 for that child unless both of
the following conditions apply:

partner for only part of 2025 because of a breakdown in
your relationship
- You did not claim any support amounts paid to your
spouse or common-law partner on line 22000 of
your return
If both of these conditions are met, you can claim whichever
of the following amounts is better for you:
- line 58200 of your Form AB428
- line 22000 of your return
How to claim this amount
Complete the calculation for line 58200 using
Worksheet AB428. If you are claiming this amount for more
than one dependant, enter the total amount on line 58200
of your Form AB428.
Note
The CRA may ask for a signed statement from a medical
practitioner showing when the impairment began and
how long it is expected to last. You do not need a signed
statement from a medical practitioner if the CRA already
has an approved Form T2201, Disability Tax Credit
Certificate, for a specified period. The notice of
determination will show which years you are eligible for.
