Income Tax Assistance

If you are a low-income Delta resident, we can help you file your taxes, so that you can receive the government benefits and credits you are entitled to without interruptions. Here's how it works:

  • You drop off your taxes at our free tax clinic.
  • Canada Revenue Agency-trained volunteers prepare and file your simple tax return.
  • Then you pick up your paperwork from the clinic.

Free Tax Clinic: Helping Delta Residents File Their Taxes

Why File Your Taxes?

Filing on time ensures access to important benefits and credits, such as:

  • GST/HST Credit
  • Canada Carbon Rebate
  • Canada Child Benefit
  • Provincial and Territorial Payments

Tax Season: March 2 – April 30, 2026

We can prepare tax returns for the current year (2025) and up to ten (10) previous years (2016 – 2025).

Help spread the word! Let’s make sure everyone gets the support they need this tax season!

This program is offered in partnership with the Canada Revenue Agency.
