Canada uses a progressive tax system where you pay higher rates as your income increases. The process involves calculating your total income, subtracting eligible deductions to get your taxable income, then applying federal and provincial tax rates. Understanding this flow helps you make strategic decisions about deductions, credits, and income timing to optimize your tax situation legally.
You must file if you owe taxes, received CRA requests, or want to claim refunds and benefits. Tax residents include Canadian citizens, permanent residents, and those who lived in Canada for 183+ days. Even if you had no income, filing may benefit you through GST/HST credits, Canada Child Benefit, or other programs.
Key strategies include maximizing RRSP contributions (which reduce taxable income), claiming all eligible deductions (childcare, medical expenses, moving costs), utilizing tax credits (tuition, donations, home office), and income splitting with family members where allowed. The book provides 40+ questions covering specific scenarios and optimization strategies.
