Mr. Cullen's Tax Tips

Now that you've survived your holiday celebrations (and perhaps broken the first of a few of your New Year's resolutions) the call of a new year is upon us, with Tax Time just around the corner (please don't shoot the messenger).

To help residents of the Northwest better understand the requirements of the Federal Tax Return, the MP for Skeena-Bulkley Valley is taking to the road, ready to offer up some help for the 2013 Federal tax return.

Nathan Cullen has announced that he and a number of volunteers will be arriving in a number of local communities over the course of January, ready to assist constituents as they prepare the groundwork of their tax returns.

The first of the public sessions is planned for Prince Rupert's campus of Northwest Community college from 1 PM to 3 PM on Sunday, January 19th.

The Two hour session will help North Coast residents learn more about such things as the Working Income Tax Benefit, the Public Transit Tax Credit, or the Children's Arts Tax Credit, outlining what those and other benefits are all about and how taxpayers can apply for them.

The tour continues through the Northwest through until January 21st, you can find out more about the sessions and where they take place here.

Those with questions on the sessions can contact the MP's office at 1-888-622-0212
