TP-965.39.4-V: Calculation of the CIP Deduction

If you invested in a Cooperative Investment Plan (CIP) by buying securities from a cooperative or a federation of cooperatives, in or after 2010, and you lived in Québec at the end of the year, you might be able to claim a deduction for your investment. You’ll need to complete form TP-965.39.4-V to determine what your deduction is.

You can also carry forward the unused portion of the CIP deduction you don’t use right away (for up to 5 years) so that you can apply it to a future return.
