Question 1

Can I reapply after a DTC denial?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A denial is not permanent. You can reapply at any time with a new or corrected T2201. Most denials are caused by insufficient functional language on the original T2201, not because the person does not qualify. My Benefits Canada reviews denied applications and reapplies correctly.

Question 2

How long do I have to appeal a DTC denial?

Accepted Answer

You have 90 days from the date of the denial notice to file a formal objection with CRA. However, you can also simply reapply with a corrected T2201 at any time — there is no deadline for reapplication.

Question 3

What is the difference between a DTC objection and a reapplication?

Accepted Answer

A formal objection (T400A) challenges CRA's decision on the original application and must be filed within 90 days. A reapplication submits a new T2201 with corrected or additional information. In most cases, a well-prepared reapplication is faster and more effective.

Question 4

Does My Benefits Canada charge to review a denial?

Accepted Answer

No. We review your denial letter and original T2201 at no cost and with no obligation. Our fee is 25% of retroactive refunds only — collected after CRA approves your application. If not approved, you pay nothing.

Question 5

How much can I recover if my reapplication is approved?

Accepted Answer

A successful reapplication can recover up to $22,000 in retroactive CRA tax credits, with adjustments going back up to 10 years.
