Free Tax Clinic – Registration Required

The Refugee Centre is pleased to offer a free tax clinic designed to support newcomers and students in completing and filing their income tax returns. Our goal is to help community members file their taxes accurately, remain compliant with government requirements, and access important benefits and credits they may be entitled to receive.

This clinic is offered as a drop-off service with mandatory registration. Participants must complete the registration form and upload their tax documents electronically. For individuals who are unable to upload documents online, documents may be dropped off in person at The Refugee Centre.

Important Dates
📅 Registration Period: March 1 – April 12
📅 Deadline to Drop Off Documents (if unable to upload online): April 12
📍 Location: 2107 St Catherine Ouest, Suite 100, Montreal, Quebec H3H 1M6

After registering, participants will receive email updates throughout the process. If additional or missing documents are required, our team will contact participants by email. Individuals who register but do not meet eligibility requirements will also be notified by email. Once tax returns have been completed and filed, participants will be contacted to pick up their original documents at the Centre.
