Call for Tax Return Preparation Volunteers

 
CPA Manitoba is looking for volunteers to prepare tax returns* for students and/or individuals with a modest income and simple tax situation through the Canada Revenue Agency Community Volunteer Income Tax Program (CVITP).

There will be upcoming opportunities in the spring of 2024, or you can indicate interest in future opportunities. 

If you are interested in contributing your time to this important cause, we encourage you to contact Laura Wetton.

*Note - The CPA Manitoba Bylaw 801(2)(a) permits members to provide volunteer tax preparation services through a CPA Manitoba program or the CVITP:

801(2) The following professional services constitute "other regulated services": (a) providing advice, counsel or interpretation with respect to the preparation of a tax return with the exception of providing voluntary tax preparation services through CPA Manitoba or the Canada Revenue Agency program.

Registration of a firm with CPA Manitoba and maintaining professional liability insurance are not required for members who only prepare volunteer tax returns for low-income individuals through these programs. For any other income tax preparation of returns to the public, registration of a firm with CPA Manitoba is required.
