Principal Residence Worksheet
 
Complete this worksheet together with Form T2091(IND), Designation of a Property as a Principal Residence by an Individual
(Other than a Personal Trust), or Form T1255, Designation of a Property as a Principal Residence by the Legal Representative
of a Deceased Individual, to calculate the reduction as a result of the capital gains election. To calculate the reduction, you will
need amounts reported on Form T664 or T664(Seniors), Election to Report a Capital Gain on Property Owned at the End of
February 22, 1994, that you (for the purposes of this form, if you are the legal representative for a deceased person, "you"
refers to the deceased person) filed for the 1994 tax year. Keep a copy of this worksheet for your records and attach another to
Form T2091(IND) or Form T1255.
