Reading P102 is awesome! I phoned CRA today for info and she directed me to the guide. I'm learning so much about what's considered as a support payment that will save both my ex and I (we're amicable so far) mega at tax time. I highly recommend reading the guide.

My question:
The CRA agent told me (not her area of expertise) that she didn't think the lawyer could charge for the tax form to allow us to claim legal fees. She suggested I contact the law society. I checked law societies website and couldn't find the info.
If I request a tax form or statement from my lawyer for income tax purposes indicating the amount paid to my lawyer regarding support payments can my lawyer charge me for that, or is it one of those things that they aren't allowed to charge for.
Thanks!
