My question is: Canadian-specific
QUESTION: I sponsored my parents to come to Canada. They landed last year in Feb 2003. They are permanent residents living with me in the same house. None of them do work. I am the supporter.
When I file my tax return this year, Can I make use of the sponsorship in my return ????
Thanks;

If one or both are medically infirm, you can deduct a personal amount for the infirm parent(s) on line 305 of your Canadian tax return
If they are medically fit and have just not found a job, you cannot claim them as a deduction.
