Students > Quebec Solidarity tax credit and GST tax credit

If your children are aged 18 or more and are still pursuing their studies, they should be receiving the Quebec Solidarity Credit payments or GST payments. If not, it would be important to inform us and send us a void cheque from their bank account so they can be registered to direct deposit when producing their income tax returns.

Governments require them to register for direct deposit in order for the payments to go into their bank account.

The Solidarity tax credit is in the order of $350 if the child lives with you and can be in the order of $1,300 if he lives in his apartment on December 31, 2024, in which case he must obtain a Relevé 31 from his owner. The GST credit amounts to around of $340.
