With the
tax deadline looming many of us are feeling the pressure to file, and
help is available for some in the form of a free tax clinic.
Ashley
Clarke of the Canada Revenue Agency says the Community
Volunteer Income Tax Program is for those with a modest income and a
simple tax situation.
For a
single person to be eligible they can't make more than $30,000 per year,
it's $40,000 for a couple and $35,000 for an adult with a child,
however according to Clarke those numbers can vary slightly from place
to place.
Clarke
says seniors, students and social assistance recipients use the service,
among others. You can see a list of clinics taking place in St. Stephen
by clicking here.
