momof1,

as you mentioned,

what happens when one spouse is getting to claim this extire amount as well as other govt deductions

Are you referring to income tax deductions?

momof1,

I believe you are referring to the eligible Dependant amount line 305 or use to be known as "equivalent to spouse amount"

CCRA has a summary of the deduction and the criteria here
