Cannot find my Ontario unused tuition amount for tax return

Taxes

Hi there, I am a student filing my own taxes for the first time! I am doing it on Wealthsimple Tax and it asks for the "Unused federal tuition amount" and "Unused provincial tuition amount" from previous years. This information is supposed to be found on My CRA under Tax returns -> Carryover amounts, but mine only shows the table federal carryover amounts. Here is the help guide from WS Tax: SimpleTax Help: How do I find and/or report my unused tuition amount?

Do I leave the "Unused provincial tuition amount" blank then? Or do I just fill it the same as the federal amount?

​

Thanks!

These were phased out in 2017, no?

Edit: Federal phased out in 2017, provincial phased out in 2016.

Federal tuition amount was never phased out

My bad. Ontario has phased them out though. Only carry over amounts from previous years remain.

The Federal phase out was for textbook amounts.

Often the provincial tuition carry forward amounts are used up before the federal. Either leave blank or put $0.00.

Thanks everyone! Indeed they were phased out for Ontario and NB I believe.
