Here’s a quick overview of important dates for Canadian tax filing in 2023:

You can technically start filing taxes online on this day, but most people won’t have all of their tax documents and receipts lined up just yet.

February 28, 2023 - Due date for T4s from employers

If you were employed by a company (ie. not a contractor) they should be sending you a T4 on or before this date.

March 1, 2023 - RRSP contribution deadline

Worried about retirement? Worried about paying too much in taxes? You have until this day to make a contribution to your retirement fund and have it reduce your taxable income for 2021.

April 30, 2023 - Tax filing deadline / Tax payments due
