International Students
If you are an international student in Canada, you must file a return if you have to pay tax or if you want to claim a refund. In some other situations, you need to file a return if you want to apply for the GST/HST credit or any related provincial credit or if you, your spouse, or common-law partner want to receive the Canada child tax benefit payments.
Since most of the students are allowed to work during their study permit, certain payroll deductions can be fully/partially refunded upon filing tax return on a timely basis.
You may also want to carry forward or transfer the unused part of your tuition, education, and textbook amounts, report income for which you could contribute to a registered retirement savings plan, or claim the working income tax benefit.
Please contact us for a free consultation where we can advise you and help you file your tax returns to maximize the tax benefits.
