What is TD1NS-WS?
TD1NS-WS, the Worksheet for the 2026 Nova Scotia Personal Tax Credits Return, is a Canada Revenue Agency worksheet used together with the TD1NS. You use it to calculate the partial claims for credits that are reduced as income rises, such as the age amount, the spouse or common-law partner amount, and the amount for an eligible dependant. The figures you work out here are then entered on the TD1NS itself.
