Simple Tax Situation
In general, your tax situation is simple if you have no income or if your income comes from these sources:
- Employment
- Pension
- Benefits such as CPP, disability, CCB, EI, social assistance
- RRSP
- Support payments
- Scholarships, fellowships, bursaries or grants
- Interest (under $1,000)
Your tax situation is not simple if you:
- Are self-employed or have employment expenses
- Have business or rental income and expenses
- Have capital gains or losses
- File for bankruptcy
- Are completing a tax return for a deceased person
