Free Income Tax Clinics:
Do you need help with your tax return? You may be able to get your taxes done by a volunteer for free.
The Community Volunteer Income Tax Program (CVITP) is a longstanding partnership between the CRA and community organizations and their volunteers.
Through this program, community organizations host free tax clinics where volunteers file tax returns for free for people with a modest income and a simple tax situation. There are also options to get help in person, over the phone or virtually. To learn more, click here.

The process to file your taxes is never fun. But even if you don’t usually pay taxes it is always recommended to file as you may still be eligible for other benefits like the GST credit for example.
