The Saskatchewan Low-Income Tax Credit (SLITC) is a fully refundable, non-taxable benefit paid to help Saskatchewan residents with low and modest incomes. You do not need to pay income tax in order to receive the benefits. To be eligible for benefits, you must file an income tax return as a resident of Saskatchewan and meet income and family criteria.
Application Process
There is no need to apply for the SLITC. When you file your income tax and benefit return, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will determine your eligibility and tell you if you are entitled to the credit.
