What does the charitable tax credit mean for Albertans?

It provides an opportunity to give back to Alberta communities. The non-refundable tax credit may also provide a taxable benefit when you file your annual income tax return. The charitable tax credit ONLY applies to donations made to Canada Revenue Agency-registered charities. These organizations are able to issue official income tax receipts.

When you complete your income tax return and total your annual donations, you can claim a provincial and federal charitable tax credit. Including the provincial and federal tax credits, Albertans now receive a 50 per cent non-refundable tax credit for every dollar donated over the $200 threshold. For example, if you donated a total of $500 to four or five charities throughout the year, you would receive a combined federal and provincial non-refundable charitable tax credit of $200.

You do not need to apply for the tax credit – you simply need to claim your total eligible charitable donations on your personal income tax return each year. Alberta has one of the highest charitable tax credits in Canada.
