What is RL-24 Slip – Childcare Expenses

RL-24 Slip – Childcare Expenses

The RL-24 slip (see courtesy translation RL-24-T) must be filed by any person that, in exchange for remuneration, provided childcare services in Québec for which the tax credit for childcare expenses can be claimed. Such a person may operate:

a daycare centre;

a boarding school;

an overnight camp;

a day camp; or

a nursery school.

Purpose of the RL-24 slip

The RL-24 slip is used to report childcare expenses that qualify for the tax credit for childcare expenses.
