The Canada Revenue Agency’s Community Volunteer Income Tax Program is in full swing.
Volunteers will help complete tax returns free for individuals who have a modest-income and a simple tax situation.
The Agency is looking for community organizations to host tax preparation clinics and for volunteers to prepare tax returns.
There are a couple of tax clinics in Gibsons, one at the Gibsons Public Library and one at the Gibsons Calvary Baptist Church.
There are several in Sechelt at the Sechelt VCH Homecare Office on Inlet Avenue, Sunshine Coast Community Resource Centre, at the Rockwood Centre on Shorncliffe Avenue, at VCH Home Care on Inlet Avenue, and at the Sechelt Public Library.
In Nanaimo, there are a number of clinics including one at the VIU Tax Clinic for International Students, the Salvation Army Nanaimo, at the Immigrant Welcome Centre on Selby Street and at the Volunteer Nanaimo Income tax program on Barons Road.
