Maharatna, Dutt, and Chattarji [J. Math. Phys. 20, 2221 (1979)] discussed the use of time-dependent canonical transformations for the determination of first integrals for time-dependent Hamiltonian systems. One particular proposal that successive time-dependent polynomial canonical transformations will enable first integrals to be found for a wider variety of time-dependent polynomial Hamiltonians than can be obtained using time-dependent linear canonical transformations is shown to be not true for the paradigm which they selected. It is suggested that their ansatz is ill-founded in general.
