Government of Canada Extends 2024 Charitable Donation Deadline to February 28, 2025
In an effort to mitigate the impact of the recent Canada Post strike, the Government of Canada has announced a charitable donation deadline extension for the 2024 tax year, so that donors have sufficient time to make their contribution to Canadian charities.
For Scott Mission donors, this means they can make a donation until February 28, 2025, and claim it on their 2024 taxes. The donation tax receipt will be dated the day the donation is received. The Government announcement indicates that this extension applies to both individual and corporate donors. The extended deadline provides donors more time to finalize their 2024 charitable plans and maximize their tax benefits.
