What is Form TD1YT?

Form TD1YT, the 2026 Yukon Personal Tax Credits Return, is the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) form for people with taxable income in the Yukon. It sits beside the federal TD1: the federal form covers federal tax, and the TD1YT lists the Yukon non-refundable credits your employer or payer should allow when working out the territorial tax taken from your pay or pension.

The 2026 Yukon form has 13 lines, and it follows the federal TD1 more closely than the other territories do. Its basic personal amount is $16,452, the same figure as the federal form, and people whose net income will be more than $181,440 may claim a reduced amount worked out on Form TD1YT-WS. There's a family caregiver amount of $2,740 for each infirm child under 18, and the spouse and eligible dependant amounts are line 1 minus the other person's net income, plus $2,740 when that person is infirm. Two separate Yukon caregiver lines cover infirm adults.

FileIt asks each question in plain language and prints your answers into the CRA's own fillable PDF (edition TD1YT E (26)). Your name and date of birth can come from the People records in your vault. FileIt works out the reduced basic personal amount, the family caregiver amount, age, pension, disability, spouse and dependant amounts and the line 13 total the way the form and Form TD1YT-WS do. 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 TD1YT, 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. Use the same details as on your federal TD1.

2 Line 1 – Basic personal amount

Every person employed in the Yukon and every pensioner residing in the Yukon can enter $16,452. If your net income from all sources will be greater than $181,440, the form warns that claiming the full amount may leave you owing tax, and you may enter a partial claim from the line 1 section of Form TD1YT-WS. FileIt calculates that partial amount when you choose it; at the top of the range it bottoms out at $14,829.

3 Line 2 – Family caregiver amount for infirm children under 18

Only one parent may claim $2,740 for each infirm child born in 2009 or later who lives with both parents throughout the year. If the child doesn't live with both parents all year, the parent who can claim the eligible dependant amount on line 8 may claim it. FileIt multiplies $2,740 by the number of children you enter.

4 Line 3 – Age amount

If you will be 65 or older on December 31, 2026, and your net income will be $46,432 or less, enter $9,208. Between $46,432 and $107,819 you may enter a partial amount from the line 3 section of Form TD1YT-WS: $9,208 minus 15% of your net income above $46,432. FileIt does this for you.

5 Line 4 – Pension income amount

If you will receive regular pension payments from a pension plan or fund, enter whichever is less: $2,000 or your estimated annual pension. Canada Pension Plan, Quebec Pension Plan, old age security and guaranteed income supplement payments don't count.

6 Line 5 – Tuition

If you're a student at a university, college or an institution certified by Employment and Social Development Canada and you will pay more than $100 per institution in tuition fees, enter the total tuition fees you will pay. The Yukon line has no monthly education amounts.

7 Line 6 – Disability amount

If you will claim the disability amount on your income tax and benefit return using Form T2201, Disability Tax Credit Certificate, enter $10,341.

8 Lines 7 and 8 – Spouse and eligible dependant

Line 7 is the difference between line 1 (plus $2,740 if your spouse or common-law partner is infirm) and their estimated net income, when you support them and they live with you. Line 8 works the same way for an eligible dependant, if you have no spouse or partner you live with and support, and the dependant is related to you and lives with you. FileIt calculates both from the net income you enter. You can't claim both lines.

9 Lines 9 and 10 – Yukon caregiver amounts

Line 9 is for an infirm eligible dependant aged 18 or older, or an infirm spouse or common-law partner, whose net income will be $29,374 or less: $29,374 minus their net income (maximum $8,773), less your line 7 or 8 amount for them. Line 10 is for other infirm dependants aged 18 or older: $8,773 if their net income will be $20,601 or less, a partial amount up to $29,374. Both use Form TD1YT-WS, and you enter the results.

10 Lines 11 and 12 – Amounts transferred

Line 11 takes the unused part of your spouse's or common-law partner's age, pension income, tuition or disability amount. Line 12 takes the unused part of a dependant's disability amount, or the unused tuition amount of your (or your spouse's or partner's) dependent child or grandchild.

11 Line 13 – Total claim amount

Add lines 1 to 12. Your employer or payer uses the total to work out your territorial tax deductions. FileIt adds up the calculated lines and the amounts you entered yourself.

12 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 TD1YT, tick the box, enter 0 on line 13 and leave lines 2 to 12 blank. If your total income will be less than line 13, tick that box and no tax will be deducted. For less tax on items not on this form, such as RRSP contributions or donations, use Form T1213. Then sign and date the form.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Claiming the full $16,452 on line 1 when your net income will be well above $181,440, then owing tax at year end.
  • Forgetting the $2,740 infirm top-up when working out the spouse or eligible dependant amount.
  • Claiming both the spouse amount (line 7) and the eligible dependant amount (line 8).
  • Claiming the family caregiver amount for the same child as the other parent.
  • Copying federal or provincial figures onto the TD1YT: the Yukon pension, age and disability amounts are its own.
  • Sending the TD1YT 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 TD1YT to your employer or payer with your federal TD1. It is for your employer or payer, not the CRA, and FileIt does not deliver it for you.

Keep your Form TD1YT-WS calculations for your records, as the worksheet tells you not to hand it in. A copy of the filled form stays in the person's FileIt vault folder. Fill out a new TD1YT whenever your circumstances change or your employer asks for a new year's form.

Form TD1YT: frequently asked questions

Can I fill out the TD1YT online?

Yes. FileIt guides you through the questions, prints your answers into the CRA's official 2026 TD1YT PDF, works out the amounts that follow fixed rules and the line 13 total, and saves the PDF to your vault. It is free on every FileIt plan.

What is the Yukon basic personal amount for 2026?

The 2026 TD1YT says every person employed in the Yukon and every pensioner residing there can enter $16,452. If your net income will be more than $181,440, you may claim a reduced amount worked out on Form TD1YT-WS.

Where do I send my TD1YT?

Give it to your employer or payer, usually with your federal TD1. It doesn't go to the CRA, and FileIt never submits it for you.

Do I have to fill out the TD1YT?

If you don't, the form says your tax deductions will only include the basic personal amount, estimated by your employer or payer based on the income they pay you.

How do I have extra tax deducted in the Yukon?

The TD1YT has no additional tax box. It tells you to fill out the "Additional tax to be deducted" section of the federal TD1.

Why is the Yukon form different from the NWT and Nunavut forms?

Each territory sets its own credits. The Yukon form mirrors the federal structure (a reducible basic personal amount, a family caregiver amount for infirm children, two caregiver lines), while the TD1NT and TD1NU print a fixed basic personal amount and include monthly education amounts for students.
