Tax return (Canada)
|
Generally, the Canadian Individual tax returns for any specific year must be filed by April 30 of the following year. However some people may have extensions.
- Tax returns for self-employed individuals and their spouses must be filed by June 15 of the following year.
- Tax returns for deceased individuals must be filed by April 30 of the following year or 6 months after the date of death, whichever comes later. (Generally means April 30 unless deceased in Nov or Dec.)
All individuals have an automatic extension if their due date falls on a non-business day (Sunday or Holiday) to the next business day. Also, the Federal Revenue Minister may extend the deadline in cases of emergency situations such as floods, etc.
Canadian federal tax returns are filed with the Canada Revenue Agency.
Provincial Returns
Only the Quebec provincial government operates a separate tax system to the federal system. Filing deadlines match those of the federal government. Quebec tax returns are filed with the Ministre de Revenu du Quebec.
