How do I determine if my child qualifies as infirm for the purposes of claiming the Canada Caregiver Amount?

To determine if your child qualifies as "infirm" for the purposes of claiming the Canada Caregiver Amount, you need to meet the following criteria:

• Age: The child must be under 18 years of age.
• Impairment: The child must have a physical or mental impairment.
• Certification: The impairment must be certified by a medical practitioner. The certification should state that the impairment is severe and prolonged, significantly restricting the child’s ability to perform basic activities of daily living, such as walking, feeding, dressing, or communicating.
