BC child opportunity benefit

13.092  (1) An overpayment on account of an individual's liability under this Act for a taxation year is deemed to have arisen during a month in relation to which the year is the base taxation year, if the following requirements are met:

(a) the month is after September 2020;

(b) the individual is an eligible individual in respect of one or more qualified dependants at the beginning of the month;

(c) the individual has filed a return of income for that year;

(ii) began before the first day of that month.

(2) The amount of the overpayment deemed by subsection (1) to have arisen during a month in respect of an individual's liability under this Act for a taxation year is the greater of the following 2 amounts:

(a) the amount determined by the following formula:

 1 
12
x [benefit – (EAI x 4%)]

where

  benefit  =  the amount based on the number of qualified dependants in respect of whom the individual was an eligible individual at the beginning of the month, as follows:
(i)  for one qualified dependant, $1 600;
(ii)  for 2 qualified dependants, $2 600;
(iii)  for 3 or more qualified dependants, the amount determined by the following formula:
$2 600 + [$800 x (number of qualified dependants – 2)];
EAI  =  the amount, if any, by which the individual's adjusted income for the base taxation year exceeds $25 000;

(b) the amount determined by the following formula:

 1 
12
x [benefit – (EAI x 4%)]

EAI  =  the amount, if any, by which the individual's adjusted income for the base taxation year exceeds $80 000.

(3) Despite subsection (2), if an eligible individual is a shared-custody parent in respect of one or more qualified dependants at the beginning of a month, the amount of the overpayment deemed by subsection (1) to have arisen during the month is equal to the amount determined by the following formula:

amount = 1
2
(A + B)

where

  A  =  the amount of the overpayment determined under subsection (2), calculated without reference to this subsection;
B  =  the amount of the overpayment determined under subsection (2), calculated without reference to this subsection and subparagraph (b) (ii) of the definition of "eligible individual" in section 122.6 of the federal Act as it applies for the purposes of this section.

(4) If an amount determined by applying a formula in subsection (2) or (3) would, but for this subsection, be a negative amount, that amount is deemed to be nil.

(5) Section 122.61 (2) of the federal Act applies for the purposes of this section, except that, in addition to any other necessary modifications, section 122.61 (2) of the federal Act is to be read as if

(a) a reference to subsection (1) of section 122.61 of the federal Act were a reference to subsection (1) of this section, and

(b) the phrase "under this Part" were "under this Act".

(6) For the purposes of this section, if an individual was resident in Canada for only part of a taxation year or was not resident in Canada at any time in a taxation year, the individual's income for the year is deemed to be equal to the amount that would have been the individual's income for the year had the individual been resident in Canada throughout the year.

(7) For the purposes of this section, if an individual becomes bankrupt in a taxation year,

(a) the individual's income for the year includes the individual's income for the taxation year that begins on January 1 of the calendar year that includes the date of bankruptcy, and

(b) the total of all amounts deducted under section 63 of the federal Act in computing the individual's income for the year includes the amount deducted under that section for the individual's taxation year that begins on January 1 of the calendar year that includes the date of bankruptcy.

(8) The amounts expressed in dollars in the descriptions of "EAI" in subsection (2) must be adjusted so that, if the base taxation year in relation to a particular month is after 2019, the amount to be used under that subsection for the month is the total of

(a) the amount that would, but for subsection (9), be the relevant amount used under subsection (2) for the month that is one year before the particular month, and

(b) the product obtained by multiplying

(i) the amount referred to in paragraph (a)

by

(ii) the amount, adjusted in the prescribed manner and rounded to the nearest one-thousandth or, if the result obtained is equidistant from 2 consecutive one-thousandths, to the higher one-thousandth, that is determined by the following formula:

A
B
– 1

where

  A  =  is the Consumer Price Index for British Columbia, within the meaning of section 4.52 (7), for the 12-month period that ended on September 30 of the base taxation year, and
B  =  is the Consumer Price Index for British Columbia for the 12-month period preceding the period referred to in the description of "A".
