Are you a new comer in
the year 2002 or 2003? Have you already got the GST credit in every 3
months? The federal government of Canada revised the policy of GST credit.
New immigrants and international student may claim their GST credit in the
same year when they arrive at Canada. For example, if you arrived in
Canada between January 1, and June 30, 2002, you may get the same amount
of GST credit as those had lived in Canada for a long time. If you arrived
in Canada between July 1 and September 30, 2002, you are deserved to get
3/4 of the GST credit. GST credit is
compensation from the federal government to somebody who has low income.
Before December 31, 2001, the only way to get GST credit is to file
personal income tax of last year. The change is really good news to new
immigrants and international students. Anybody can get up to $213 per year
if the conditions are met. If you haven not
applied the GST credit of year 2002, please contact Hope
Canada for application
assistance.
