Family consisting of husband and wife and three three children
When I prepared 2020 returns last year, two children had tuition fees. I prepared returns for them, and tuition fees automatically transferred to one of the parents. When I would open the parents; data file the childrens' files would automatically open. Ctl+Q would close all returns.
For 2021 I have prepared all returns. Third child now also has tuition fees. Tuition fees are not automatically transferring to the parents. Ctl+Q does not work. It appears that the returns are not linked so transfers are not taking place.
Also Ctl+Q no longer works for the 2020 returns either. They are no longer linked
Questions:
Is there a known problem with transfers?
Or, does this feature no longer work?
Or, is there a tick box that is new and that I have missed?
Thank you

Hi Larry,
Yes, it's working-I've already used it several times to transfer tuition fees from children to their parents.
Please check Options/Module/General/Calculations Options--is the "Family Linking" box checked? Mine was originally checked, but got unchecked by itself on two occasions (and the "Complete Maximum OAS" box was checked, even though I had never checked it).
I hope it helps!
Regards,
Jack

That was exactly what I needed thank you
I do not know if that option has ever been there to tick or untick in the past, but it was indeed unchosen when I checked.
Ticking that box has solved my difficulty
