Due to the COVID-19 crisis, the income tax deadline has now been extended to June 1 for T1 individuals, and the June 15 filing deadline for T1 self-employed individuals (sole-proprietors).
Please note that if the 2019 tax return is not assessed in time, benefits and/or credits for the July to September 2020 payments will be based on information from 2018 tax returns. Once the 2019 return is filed, it is possible that the CRA will make adjustments based on the updated income information.
If you need any help with filing taxes, Immigrant Services Calgary has free online income tax clinics that are available to qualified newcomers. For more information, please connect with your settlement counselor or book an appointment with one through https://settlementcalgary.com/
