Personal Tax FAQs:

When is the deadline to file personal income tax returns in Canada?

The deadline for most individuals to file their personal income tax returns is April 30th each year. If you or your spouse/common-law partner are self-employed, the deadline is June 15th; however, any taxes owed are still due by April 30th.

Common documents include T4 slips (employment income), T5 slips (investment income), receipts for deductible expenses (e.g., medical, charitable donations), and information on other income sources such as rental or self-employment income. We provide a comprehensive checklist to ensure you gather all necessary documents.

If you are self-employed or an employee required to work from home, you may be eligible to claim home office expenses. Specific criteria must be met, and proper documentation is essential. We can help determine your eligibility and calculate the allowable deductions.

Effective tax planning can help reduce your tax liability, maximize deductions and credits, and align your financial strategies with your long-term goals. It involves proactive measures such as RRSP contributions, income splitting, and strategic investment planning.

If you receive a notice or audit request from the CRA, it’s important to respond promptly and accurately. Our team can assist you in understanding the notice, gathering necessary documentation, and communicating with the CRA on your behalf to resolve any issues.
