What is Form TD1NU?

Form TD1NU, the 2026 Nunavut Personal Tax Credits Return, is the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) form for people with taxable income in Nunavut. It sits beside the federal TD1: the federal form covers federal tax, and the TD1NU lists the Nunavut non-refundable credits your employer or payer should allow when working out the territorial tax taken from your pay or pension.

The 2026 form has 12 lines and some of the highest territorial amounts in Canada. Its basic personal amount is printed at $19,659, the age amount is up to $12,550, the pension amount up to $2,000 and the disability amount $16,733. Students add tuition, education and textbook amounts ($400 or $120 for each month of study) to their fees. The spouse amount is $19,659 minus your spouse's net income, and the form says to enter $19,659 for an eligible dependant whose net income is $19,659 or less.

FileIt asks each question in plain language and prints your answers into the CRA's own fillable PDF (edition TD1NU E (26)). Your name and date of birth can come from the People records in your vault. FileIt works out the age, pension, tuition, disability, spouse and eligible dependant amounts and the line 12 total. The PDF is filed in the person's vault folder and can be signed with FileIt's optional e-signature. You give it to your employer or payer yourself, because FileIt never sends it. Filling forms is free on every plan.

How to fill out Form TD1NU, step by step

1 Identification

Enter your last name, first name and initial(s), date of birth (YYYY/MM/DD), employee number, address, postal code and social insurance number. Non-residents also give their country of permanent residence.

2 Line 1 – Basic personal amount

Every person employed in Nunavut and every pensioner residing in Nunavut can claim this amount, printed on the 2026 form as $19,659. If you will have more than one employer or payer at the same time, read the page 2 section first.

3 Line 2 – Age amount

If you will be 65 or older on December 31, 2026, and your net income will be $46,432 or less, enter $12,550. Between $46,432 and $130,099 you may enter a partial amount from the line 2 section of Form TD1NU-WS: $12,550 minus 15% of your net income above $46,432. FileIt calculates it.

4 Line 3 – Pension income amount

Enter whichever is less: $2,000 or your estimated annual pension from a pension plan or fund. Canada Pension Plan, Quebec Pension Plan, Old Age Security and Guaranteed Income Supplement payments don't count.

5 Line 4 – Tuition, education and textbook amounts

If you will pay more than $100 per institution in tuition fees, enter your total tuition fees plus $400 for each month as a full-time student, $400 for each month as a part-time student with a mental or physical disability, or $120 for each month as another part-time student. FileIt adds these up.

6 Line 5 – Disability amount

If you will claim the disability amount on your return using Form T2201, Disability Tax Credit Certificate, enter $16,733.

7 Lines 6 and 7 – Spouse and eligible dependant

Line 6 is the difference between line 1 and the estimated net income of your spouse or common-law partner, if you support them, they live with you, and their net income will be less than line 1. For line 7, the 2026 form says to enter $19,659 if you support an eligible dependant who is related to you, lives with you and has a net income of $19,659 or less, and you have no spouse or partner you live with and support. You can't claim both.

8 Lines 8 and 9 – Caregiver and infirm dependants

Line 8 is $6,032 if you care for a parent or grandparent aged 65 or older, or an infirm relative aged 18 or older, who lives with you and whose net income will be $20,601 or less (partial between $20,601 and $26,633). Line 9 is $6,032 for an infirm dependant aged 18 or older whose net income will be $8,559 or less (partial between $8,559 and $14,591). You can't claim the same dependant on both. The partial amounts come from Form TD1NU-WS, and you enter the results.

9 Lines 10 to 12

Line 10 takes unused amounts transferred from your spouse or common-law partner, and line 11 unused amounts transferred from a dependant. Line 12 adds lines 1 to 11. FileIt calculates the total.

10 Page 2 and certification

If you have more than one employer or payer at the same time and already claimed your credits on another 2026 TD1NU, tick the box, enter 0 on line 12 and leave lines 2 to 11 blank. If your total income will be less than line 12, tick that box and no tax will be deducted. Then sign and date the form.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Leaving out the monthly education amounts on line 4.
  • Claiming the full spouse amount when your spouse or partner has some net income, since line 6 is $19,659 minus their net income.
  • Claiming the same dependant on both line 8 and line 9.
  • Using another territory's figures: Nunavut's age, pension and disability amounts are its own.
  • Sending the TD1NU to the CRA instead of giving it to your employer or payer.

After you fill it out

Review the PDF, then sign and date the Certification on page 2, with FileIt's e-signature or a pen. Give the TD1NU to your employer or payer with your federal TD1. FileIt does not deliver it for you.

Keep any Form TD1NU-WS calculations for your records. A copy of the filled form stays in the person's FileIt vault folder. Fill out a new TD1NU whenever your circumstances change or your employer asks for a new year's form.
