The reference number will remain on My Account until the medical certification (Part B) is completed. Representatives cannot currently complete the non-medical portion (Part A) through their Represent a Client account.
To use this new option, the patient (person applying for the DTC) must register for CRA’s My Account.
Alternatively, the non-medical portion (Part A) can be completed over the phone, either by calling the personal tax general enquiries line (1-800-959-8281) or through a new automated voice system (1-800-463-4421). The automated voice system indicates that it is intended to be used only by the disabled individual.
