If you’ve chosen Canada as your destination for your education, you’re a part of the growing number of international students in Canada. If you’re filing your taxes as an international student, keep reading to get all the information you need. Full-time students are not exempt from paying income tax in Canada. If you received any income from summer jobs or part-time jobs, you need to file an income tax return. The federal tuition tax credit is one of the top tax credits for post-secondary students. Even if you aren’t reporting any income on your tax return, you can use this credit to claim the eligible tuition fees for post-secondary level courses. When you repay your student loans, you are able to claim the interest as a non-refundable tax credit to help reduce any taxes owed. You may also claim moving expenses to take courses as a full-time student in a post-secondary program, but only if you have taxable scholarship income (which is not usually the case).

# Understanding the Tuition Tax Credit in Canada: All You Need to Know. * If you’re a post-secondary student in Canada, you’re probably eligible for the tuition tax credit. * By using the tuition tax credit, you can reduce the amount of income tax you have to pay, both now and in the future. * It’s important to file your student income taxes to take advantage of the tuition tax credit. This means that if you pay for tuition and other educational costs (under certain conditions), you can let the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) know when you’re filing your taxes, and they’ll lower your tax bill, either now or in the future. If you don’t have enough employment income to make full use of your tuition tax credit, you can carry the amount forward to future years or transfer it to a spouse or other eligible family member (like your parents), the maximum transfer for the current year is $5,000.
