DID YOU KNOW THAT MUSIC LESSONS ARE NOW TAX DEDUCTIBLE?
ONTARIO CHILDREN'S ACTIVITY TAX CREDITNow there's even more reason to give music a try. The Ontario Children's Activity Tax Credit came into effect January 1, 2011, allowing parents of children enrolled in music lessons to claim a refundable tax credit. Learn more at http://www.fin.gov.on.ca/en/catc/. Begin a lifelong love of music and be rewarded in more ways than one!
CHILDREN'S ARTS TAX CREDIT (CATC)
For 2011 and subsequent years, the federal budget proposes a new non-refundable tax credit based on eligible expenses paid for the cost of registration or membership of your or your spouse's or common-law partner's child in a prescribed program of artistic, cultural, recreational or developmental activity (eligible program).
The CATC will let you claim eligible expenses of up to $500 per year for each of your children (under the age of 16, or under the age of 18 and eligible for the disability tax credit.)
