Background: CRA disallows the deduction for spousal support payments instead the amount is put under child support. Spoke with CRA and have filed the appropriate Amendment to declare SS payments as deductible. Waiting on the Re-Assessment. In the meantime, SSAG report calculation is being done.
My question is: Since CRA disallowed the tax deductible to me, can I safely assume that CRA did not tax the spousal support amount to the recipient (did not add the spousal support amount to income). Which would mean that this amount does not get deducted when doing the SSAG calculations.
I have received copies of my ex-spouse's Notice of Assessment but it does not state if the spousal support was allowed or disallowed.
Any one out there with a similar situation that could provide feedback. Thanks.
