Free Tax Clinic: YEar-Round Clinic

TAX PROGRAM (CVITP)

About our FREE tax clinics:


These clinics are hosted by community organizations across Canada through the Community Volunteer Income Tax Program where eligible people can get their tax returns done for free. 


We encourage you to file online this year. If you choose to stay at home to practice social distancing and limit your potential exposure to COVID-19, you should consider filing your tax return online. If you have a modest income and a simple tax situation, The Strathcona Place Society, we may be able to complete and file your taxes virtually by video conference, curbside parking tax clinic, or through a document drop-off arrangement.


We are now transitioning to our Year-Round Tax Clinic.


Step 1: Find out if you are eligible: 

You may be eligible for help at a free tax clinic if you have both a modest income as well as a simple tax situation.


A) Modest income: Your total family income should be less than the amount shown in the chart. Check with your community organization as some organizations have different requirements.


Chart showing suggested income level 

Family size                                   |Total family income                                        

One person                                  | Around $35,000 

One person with one dependent  | Around $37,500 (add $2,500 for each additional dependent)

Couple                                          | Around $45,000 (add $2,500 for each                    .                                                      dependent)


B) Simple tax situation: 

In general, your tax situation is simple if you have no income or if your income comes from any of these sources:

  • Employment (T4), Employment Insurance (T4E) 
  • Pension Income (OAS, CPP, T4A, T4RSP, T4RIF)
  • Benefits such as CPP- disability, Social assistance payment (T5007) 
  • Scholarships, fellowships, bursaries or grants (T4A) 
  • Investment (T5 & T3) – less than $1,000.00


Your tax situation is not simple if you: 

  • are self-employed or have employment expenses
  • have business or rental income and expenses 
  • have capital gains or losses without slips 
  • file for bankruptcy 
  • are completing a final tax return for a deceased person 
  • have T5013 (Partnership), T5018 (Contract) & GST
