What is Form TD1PE?

Form TD1PE, the 2026 Prince Edward Island Personal Tax Credits Return, is the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) form that accompanies the federal TD1 for people who work in PEI or receive a pension while living there. It lists the Island's own non-refundable credits: a basic personal amount, age amount, pension income amount, tuition and education amounts, disability amount, spouse and eligible dependant amounts, a caregiver amount, an amount for infirm adult dependants, and transfers from a spouse or dependant.

If you skip it, the form says your employer or payer will deduct provincial tax after allowing the basic personal amount only. Seniors, pensioners, students and people supporting family can end up with more tax withheld than needed.

FileIt turns the TD1PE into a short set of questions and prints your answers into the CRA's own fillable PDF (edition TD1PE E (26)). It can pre-fill names and dates of birth from People records in your vault, and it works out the age amount, pension income amount, the tuition and education amount from your fees and months of study, the disability amount, the spouse and eligible dependant amounts and the line 12 total. The PDF is saved to the person's vault folder and can be sent for optional e-signature. You give it to your employer or payer yourself — FileIt never submits it. Filling forms is free on every plan.

How to fill out Form TD1PE, step by step

1 Identification

Fill in 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 Prince Edward Island and every pensioner residing there can claim the basic personal amount, printed on the 2026 edition as $15,000. If you will have more than one employer or payer at the same time in 2026, read page 2 first.

3 Line 2 – Age amount

If you will be 65 or older on December 31, 2026, and your net income will be $36,600 or less, enter $6,510. Between $36,600 and $80,000 you may claim a partial amount, calculated on the line 2 section of Form TD1PE-WS. FileIt calculates it from your estimated net income.

4 Line 3 – Pension income amount

Enter whichever is less: $1,000 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 are not included.

5 Line 4 – Tuition and education amounts

If you are a student at a university, college or institution certified by Employment and Social Development Canada and will pay more than $100 per institution in tuition, enter your total tuition 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 a part-time student without one.

Those monthly rates are double the Newfoundland and Labrador ones, so don't reuse figures between the two forms. FileIt asks for your fees and months and adds them up.

6 Line 5 – Disability amount

If you will claim the disability amount on your return using Form T2201, Disability Tax Credit Certificate, enter $6,890 (2026 edition).

7 Line 6 – Spouse or common-law partner amount

Enter $12,740 if you support your spouse or common-law partner who lives with you and whose net income will be $1,274 or less. Between $1,274 and $14,014 a partial amount applies, from the line 6 section of Form TD1PE-WS. FileIt works it out.

8 Line 7 – Amount for an eligible dependant

Also up to $12,740, if you have no spouse or partner (or one you live apart from and neither support nor are supported by), and you support a related dependant who lives with you and whose net income will be $1,274 or less. A partial amount applies between $1,274 and $14,014. Line 6 and line 7 can't both be claimed.

9 Line 8 – Caregiver amount

Enter $2,446 if you take care of your (or your spouse's or partner's) 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 $11,953 or less. Between $11,953 and $14,399 a partial amount applies (line 8 section of Form TD1PE-WS). You enter this line yourself in FileIt.

10 Line 9 – Amount for infirm dependants age 18 or older

Enter $2,446 if you support an infirm dependant aged 18 or older who lives in Canada, is related to you or your spouse or partner, and has net income of $4,966 or less. Between $4,966 and $7,412 a partial amount applies (line 9 section of Form TD1PE-WS). You can't claim the same person on lines 8 and 9.

11 Lines 10 and 11 – Amounts transferred

Line 10 is the unused part of your spouse's or partner's age amount, pension income amount, tuition and education amounts or disability amount. Line 11 is the unused part of a dependant's disability amount, and the unused tuition and education amounts of your (or your spouse's or partner's) dependent child or grandchild.

12 Line 12 – Total claim amount

Add lines 1 to 11. This total is what your employer or payer uses for your PEI tax deductions, and FileIt calculates it for you.

13 Page 2 – More than one employer, total income and other requests

If you work for more than one employer or payer at the same time and already claimed on another 2026 TD1PE, tick the box, enter 0 on line 12 and leave lines 2 to 11 blank. Tick "Total income is less than the total claim amount" if your income from all employers and payers will be under line 12, and no tax will be deducted.

For extra tax, use the federal TD1. For less tax because of deductions not on this form, such as RRSP contributions or child care expenses, use Form T1213 to ask for a letter of authority.

14 Certification

Sign and date page 2. You are certifying that the information is correct and complete; a false return is a serious offence.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Leaving out the $400 or $120 monthly education amount on line 4.
  • Claiming the full $12,740 spouse amount when your spouse's net income will be more than $1,274.
  • Assuming PEI's amounts match the federal TD1 — the Island's basic personal, age and disability figures are different.
  • Claiming the same relative on both the caregiver line and the infirm dependant line.
  • Claiming your credits on two jobs at the same time.
  • Sending the form to the CRA rather than your employer or payer.
  • Not filling out a new TD1PE after turning 65 or when your studies change.

After you fill it out

Check the filled PDF, then sign and date the Certification on page 2 using FileIt's optional e-signature or a pen. Hand it to your employer or payer with your federal TD1. The CRA doesn't receive it, and FileIt never sends it on your behalf.

A copy is kept in the person's FileIt vault folder so you can refer back to it. Fill out a new TD1PE whenever your circumstances change or your employer asks for a new year's form.

Form TD1PE: frequently asked questions

Can I fill out the TD1PE online?

Yes. FileIt asks the questions, prints your answers into the CRA's official 2026 TD1PE PDF, calculates the rule-based lines and the line 12 total, and stores it in your vault. It is free on every FileIt plan.

Where does the TD1PE go?

To your employer or payer, usually with your federal TD1. It isn't sent to the CRA, and FileIt doesn't submit it.

What is the PEI basic personal amount for 2026?

The 2026 edition of Form TD1PE prints $15,000 on line 1.

How is the PEI education amount calculated?

Add your tuition fees plus $400 per month as a full-time student, $400 per month as a part-time student with a mental or physical disability, or $120 per month as a part-time student without one. It applies only if you will pay more than $100 per institution in tuition.

Do I need a TD1PE if I only have a pension?

If you are a pensioner residing in Prince Edward Island and start receiving payments from a new payer, the TD1PE lets them allow the right PEI credits. Without it, only the basic personal amount is allowed.

Can I ask for extra tax to be deducted on the TD1PE?

No — the form sends you to the "Additional tax to be deducted" section of the federal TD1.

What is Form TD1PE-WS?

It's the worksheet the CRA provides to work out partial amounts on lines 2, 6, 7, 8 and 9. FileIt does the line 2, 6 and 7 calculations for you; lines 8 and 9 are per dependant, so you enter them.

Can I sign the TD1PE electronically?

FileIt offers optional e-signature, or you can print it and sign by hand. Check what your employer or payer accepts.
