As happens every year, Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) wants to hear from YOU!
The T-4 slips are here or are in the mail. T-4’s will be issued to all persons who received “Government” benefits in 2025. Seniors are receiving their Old Age Pension and Canada Pension slips; the banks are issuing their T-5’s for interest earned and RRSP/RRIF’s are being dealt with. If you have not received your government slips by the end of February, contact Service Canada in Vernon.

If you are a Senior, a Student, a Low-Income earner, a person with a disability, or know someone who is, the CVITP is a program where volunteers will complete and file your income tax return for FREE. You bring in your information, the volunteers complete and file the return, and you come back and pick up the paperwork. It’s that easy
The deadline for filing is Thursday, April 30, 2026. After that date, there are late filing charges assessed and if there are monies owing, interest charges may be applied. If you do not file your return, the GST, Child Tax Benefits (if applicable), and the Guarantee Income Supplement may be interrupted/discontinued as well as other benefits you may have.
Mark your calendars and we will see you sometime during March or April.
