Are the nannies wages tax deductible?
Absolutely! The amount of your caregivers wage that you are allowed to deduct depends on the number of children and their ages and is limited to a maximum of 2/3 of the salary of the lower wage earner. We recommend that you refer to your accountant or the government web site www.cra-arc.gc.ca or Google the words “T778 form” for a more accurate allowable deduction.
