Unless you or your spouse are self employed, the deadline for filing your 2008 Personal Income Tax Return and paying taxes owing is April 30, 2009. Canada Revenue Agency offices are generally open with a drop box until Midnight to accept returns. I am also available to Efile Personal Income Tax Returns until 11:59pm to avoid being late. If you file late; you will be assessed a Late Filing Penalty based on the amount of tax that is owing at that date and you will be charged interest on the penalty and taxes outstanding until paid in full.

If you or your spouse are self employed, you have until June 15, 2009 to file your 2008 Personal Income Tax Return; however if you have any taxes owing; they must be paid prior to April 30, 2009. If you pay your taxes between April 30 and June 15; you will incur interest charges but will not face the late filing penalty until June 15, 2009.

Based on complexity, our schedule and your own preparations; it may take a few days or up to a week or two to prepare your return so the sooner you can get your material to me, the better.
