I received T4A's from both the 'Canada Student Loans Program' and the 'MIN OF TRAIN, COLL & UNIV'. The federal grant was about $2900 and provincial $3300. How do I deduct

[jaskaran2004]

So I have two T4A's, one for a federal tuition grant and one from the province (OSAP). First one amounts to about $2900 and second one $3300. My T2202A shows 8 months of Part-Time B studies so I have to deduct the tuition against these T4A's. First semester tuition was about $2600 and second semester about $2750. How do I claim the 'Related expenses, if any' field in this case? Do I just claim $2600 against the federal grant of $2900 and $2750 against the provincial grant of $3300 (or vice-versa)? Do I claim the total ($5350) in both fields? Also, is the tuition amount from the T2202A the only thing I can claim or can I also claim anything else such as student union fees, text books, calculators, etc.?

I want to maximize my deductions. Thank you so much!
