January 31st, 2017
This is applicable to businesses only and is the deadline for filing and remitting Goods and Service Tax/Harmonized Services Tax (GST/HST) for the previous quarterly reporting period.
March 1st, 2017
This is the deadline for contributing to your Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RSSP) for the previous tax year.
March 15th, 2017
On this date you can expect to pay your quarterly installment of taxes to the CRA if you are on a quarterly payment plan.
April 30th, 2017: TAX DEADLINE
This is the most important deadline to bear in mind – the CRA’s personal and self-employed income tax filing deadline.
