SPOTLIGHT: CRA weighs in on Caregiver earnings!
Hey everyone, some interesting information came our way and we are sharing it with you in today’s SPOTLIGHT!
We have posted to our Caregiver Support and Networking page a letter from the CRA to CLBC from March of this year. The letter spends some time considering whether or not caregiver income is taxable.
You can find the Letter – Canada Revenue Agency to CLBC (March 28, 2018) here.
As always, we encourage each caregiver to consult their tax professional when filing their income taxes.
