Tax Clinics
2010 Tax Clinics: Volunteers Needed
Tax time is just around the corner and so are the ICAA's annual Tax Clinics! Each spring, from March to April, tax clinic volunteers dedicate a few hours of their time to help low income seniors, disabled, unemployed, new Canadian citizens and others complete their personal tax returns.
You don't have to be a tax expert to help! The tax returns are generally fairly basic. Prior to the clinic, all volunteers will receive an information package and basic guidelines for preparing these types of tax returns. Tax software is also provided, courtesy of our corporate sponsor, Intuit.
Help us make a difference! For a list of clinics that still require volunteers, click here.
