CRA Webinars for One-time payment to Canadians living with disabilities

CRA is hosting a number of webinars to help you learn more about the one-time payment that will be sent to Canadians living with disabilities. In the webinars, the following will be discussed –

• One-time payment to Canadians living with disabilities – The Government of Canada announced a one-time $600 payment in recognition of the extraordinary expenses faced by persons with disabilities during the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Canada Caregiver Credit – Do you support a spouse or common-law partner, or a dependant with a physical or mental impairment? The Canada caregiver credit (CCC) is a non-refundable tax credit that may be available to you.
• Slam the scam – Protect Yourself Against Fraud – Taxpayers should be vigilant when they receive, either by telephone, mail, text message or email, a fraudulent communication that claims to be from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) requesting personal information such as a social insurance number, credit card number, bank account number, or passport number.
• Medical Expenses – Which medical expenses can you claim?
