How to fill Form T2201 (Disability Tax Credit Certificate) — and autofill your details with hivi
Fill Part A of the Disability Tax Credit Certificate (T2201) without retyping your details
Form T2201 — Disability Tax Credit Certificate is how you apply to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) for the disability tax credit (DTC), for yourself or a dependant. The form has two parts: Part A (you or your representative) and Part B (a medical practitioner). This guide is an example of storing the Part A identity fields in hivi — it is not tax or medical advice, and hivi is not affiliated with the CRA or the Government of Canada.
Official form and source
Start from the official CRA source and always use the current version — form numbers and links can change:
- Form (CRA): T2201 Disability Tax Credit Certificate — canada.ca
- How to apply: Disability tax credit — how to apply — canada.ca
What this form is about
T2201 certifies that a person has a severe and prolonged impairment so the CRA can grant the disability tax credit. Part A identifies the applicant (and the person claiming the credit, if different). Part B is the medical certification — only a qualified medical practitioner can complete it.
Who fills it
The applicant or their legal representative completes Part A; a medical practitioner completes Part B. The repeating fields are in Part A — the applicant's name, address, and SIN, exactly the kind of details hivi stores once.
Before you start: what to gather
- The applicant's full legal name, address, and SIN (and the claimant's details, if someone else claims the credit).
- Your medical practitioner's information, so they can complete and certify Part B.

Why do it in hivi
