$200 TAX CREDIT DEADLINE

The Support for Learners Program offers parents $200 per child to help offset costs incurred as a result of school closers during the lockdown.

The program, which was originally launched last November, was only for children between the ages of 0 to 12 years old but on January 11th, it will be extended for children who attend secondary school.

It’s very important to note though that unlike most tax credits, you have to actually register for it before February 8th; otherwise, you won’t receive it.

There are so many people I’ve spoken to who are unaware of this tax credit or that it has to be applied for so if you have any friends or family with children, it’s important to pass this message on so that they don’t miss out!
