Nancy: Diabetes, Arthritis, Fibromyalgia & COPD

Nancy K. is a 67 years old woman from Windsor, NS suffering from a multitude of physical ailments such as cirrhosis of the liver, diabetes, arthritis, and fibromyalgia as well as COPD.

We submitted Nancy’s DTC and got it approved from 2016 to 2019 but that was not good enough for us as we knew that Nancy had many years of disability that the CRA did not deem eligible.

Disability Credit Canada decided to appeal the CRA’s decision and formulate a new case for Nancy, one that had stronger supporting documents from previous years.
We requested Nancy’s old medical records from a previous doctor, we reviewed the documents and saw strong indications of a long decline in Nancy’s health both physically and mentally.

Disability Credit Canada formulated the case again, submitted a new DTC application and Nancy got approved for DTC starting 2007.

The new approval was a big win for Nancy as she was now able to collect $8,500 in retroactive Disability Tax Credits.
