Community Volunteer Income Tax Program

 

I am pleased to offer my annual Community Volunteer Income Tax Program (CVITP) for residents of Burlington with modest income.

This year my office will be running our CVITP in the Burlington Centre on Tuesdays from 10-2 and Thursdays from 1- 4 beginning on March 3 through to April 30.

Our CVITP office will be located at Burlington Centre (777 Guelph Line). 

To be eligible for this year’s free tax clinic you must have a modest income and a simple tax situation.

A modest income is considered $40,000 in annual income for one person, and no more than $55,000 per couple.

 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
  • Filed for bankruptcy
  • Are completing a tax return for a deceased person

WHAT TO BRING

 If you are eligible to take part in a CVITP, make sure to bring:

  • Tax information slip
  • Notice of Assessment (NOA) from previous year 
  • Receipts (rent, property tax, donations, transportation, etc.)
  • Social Insurance number
  • Photo Identification

The Burlington Central Library will be holding their in person CVITP from March 2 until April 27 on Mondays from 9:30 am – 2:00 pm
