Free tax support! Reduce stress this tax season with help from Mac’s Money Centre

We know that tax season — the time when Canadians are required to prepare and file their income tax returns — can be stressful. But the good news is that, as a student, you’re likely to get money back by filing your taxes. And we can help.

Each year, Mac’s Money Centre and campus and community partners come together to support the Community Volunteer Income Tax Program (CVITP). Through this program, we offer free tax services for McMaster students and eligible Hamilton/surrounding area community members.

Avoid delays in your benefits. The deadline to file returns for the 2023 tax year is April 30, 2024.

Need help filing previous tax returns?

No problem. We can help with tax returns for previous years (up to 10 years).
