Children's Fitness Tax Benefit Receipts
Will be issued electronically annually at the conclusion of each season. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Treasurer.
The children's fitness tax credit allows parents to claim a maximum of $500 per year for eligible fees paid for each child who is under 16 at any time during the year. As with most other non-refundable tax credits, the credit is calculated by multiplying the eligible amount by the lowest marginal tax rate (15.5% in 2007).
