Claiming Your Personal Tax Credits

Wednesday, January 12, 2022

Tax credits are deductions you may be able to claim when you complete and submit your income tax return. 

  • If you claimed amounts other than the basic Personal Tax Credit (e.g. tuition) on the TD1 and TD1BC forms during the tax year, please update your tax elections within Workday in January each year. 
  • If you wish to claim tax credit amounts other than the Basic amount, please update your TD1 in the 'My page' portal through Workday or complete a new electronic TD1 form.
  • If you claim only the Basic Personal Tax Credit, you do not need to complete a new TD1 every year. Please note that if a change occurs with tax implications, a new electronic Workday form must be completed no later than seven days after the change.

If you require additional assistance with updating your tax elections, please submit a Workday support request through the UBC Self Service Portal or contact the ISC Call Centre at 604-822-8200.
