line 181 - Capital Gains/Losses

 

line 369 - Home Buyers amount

 

I can't find or change line 31270 which is what the cra website mentions.

    Unfortunately, in order to claim the home buyers' tax credit the farthest, you can go back to claim the credit is 4 years. If you purchase a new primary place of residence you can claim this credit. you are able to use this credit once every 4 years.

     

    For more information please refer to our TurboTax article: Who Can Benefit From the Home Buyers’ Amount?
