INCOME TAX FOR THE EVERYDAY CANADIAN

Learn. Plan. File.​

Join me on the journey to learn about the income tax rules for individual residents of Canada. Find out what type of income sources are taxable and what type of deductions are available to reduce your annual taxable income. This one-of-a-kind book provides you with a true understanding of the income tax system and the strategies available to reduce your annual income tax payable. Learn about registered savings plans and income tax credits as well as the Government of Canada benefit programs which put tax-free money into the hands of eligible individuals.
