What are the tax deadlines in Canada?

Asked a year ago
In Canada, the tax deadlines vary depending on the type of taxpayer. For individuals, the general deadline is April 30th of each year to file their personal income tax returns for the previous calendar year. However, if you or your spouse is self-employed, you have until June 15th to file, although any amount owing is still due by April 30th to avoid interest charges. For self-employed individuals and their spouses, the deadline to pay any balance owing from the previous tax year is also April 30th to avoid late payment penalties. Additionally, businesses have different deadlines depending on their fiscal year-end, with most being due within six months of the fiscal year-end. It is important to note that these deadlines may be subject to change, so it is advisable to consult the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) website or seek professional advice for the most up-to-date information.
