As you begin to get ready to prepare your 2024 tax return, we want to ensure you’re aware of important upcoming dates and deadlines so you have everything you need to file your return with minimal hassle.
Important deadlines for 2025
MARCH 3
RRSP contribution deadline
The final date for your RRSP contributions to be eligible for the 2024 tax year is March 3, 2025. Refer to your Notice of Assessment (NOA) or access My Account information on the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) website for your total RRSP contribution limit for the 2024 tax year.
APRIL 30
Tax filing deadline for individuals
The deadline to file your 2024 personal income tax return is April 30, 2025, unless you're self‑employed. However, the CRA encourages individuals who expect to receive benefits under the GST Credit or the Canada Child Benefit not to delay the filing of their tax return to ensure their entitlements for the 2025-26 benefit year are properly determined.
JUNE 16
Tax filing deadline for self-employed individuals
The deadline to file your 2024 taxes is June 16, 2025 if you're self‑employed. Any tax balance owing, however, is still due April 30, 2025.
