FAQ
Q1. Why upon request?
A1. Aitas Japanese Immersion School is certified by the Minister of Employment and Social Development Canada and falls under category (2), so eligibility depends on each student's individual situation.
Generally, a course taken at an institution in Canada will qualify for a tuition tax credit if it was either:
(1) taken at a post-secondary education institution or
(2) for individuals 16 years of age or older at the end of the year who are developing or improving skills in an occupation, and the educational institution has been certified by the Minister of Employment and Social Development Canada
Q2. Why submit forms twice separately?
A2. Multiple submissions enhance privacy and security. Using encrypted forms, we collect and store SIN data securely. Once tax receipts are issued, the SIN information is promptly deleted. We prioritize student privacy and safeguard their sensitive information.
Q3. Why provide SIN number and privacy information to the school?
A3. The student's Social Insurance Number (SIN) needs to be included on the tax receipt T2202 form, and the annual information return will be required to be filed electronically with the CRA.
Q4. Why is the deadline strictly enforced?
A4. In order to comply with the rules set forth by the CRA, we need to file our returns in batches in February to ensure the timely issuance of tax receipts, and to avoid late filing penalties and associated costs.
Q5. Do I need to submit the pre-request form every time I register?
A5. You only need to submit the pre-request form once per calendar year* for your registered course(s). The tax receipt amount is calculated based on the calendar year* of your registration.
