T4A slips for the 2020 tax year
Payments received under the Self-Isolation Support Program are taxable and therefore must be included as income on your 2020 income tax return. The Ministry of Finance will issue T4A slips in February 2021, which will account for all payments issued in 2020. Please allow until March 10, 2021, to receive your T4A slip. Please contact us after that date if your slip has not been received.
Note: A T4A slip is not issued when the total amount received in 2020 is under $500. However, the amount received must still be reported on your income tax return.
