What is the effect of retroactively claiming s. 7 expenses for childcare and pre-school expenses?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from D.L.R.A. v S.K.C, 2018 BCSC 1472 (CanLII):

The only s. 7 expenses the mother has claimed retroactively are her 2015 childcare expenses and L.C.’s pre-school expenses from September 2017 to January 2018. I am of the view that these are proper s. 7 expenses: see Clarke v. Clarke, 2014 BCSC 824 at paras. 47–54, and Bodine-Shan v. Shan, 2014 BCCA 191 at para. 66.
