Here is a summary of the main topics in the current version.
- General information
Having experienced consequences related to the current COVID-19 pandemic, the CRA has updated a limited number of elements of their assessment system at the beginning of June 2020. For this version, the CRA asked us not to perform any changes to forms or calculations relating to a CRA-administered topic except for the addition of Schedule 58 and of a line on Schedule 200. The objective of this strategy is to ensure that the program and the assessment system perform the same calculations. We invite you to consult the article Information relating to version 20.1.3xx.100 of Cantax T2 in our Knowledge Base for more information.
- Schedule 58, Canadian Journalism Labour Tax Credit (S58)
This new schedule is used to calculate the refundable labour tax credit for a qualifying journalism organization with a taxation year starting after December 31, 2018.
- AT1 Schedule 13, Alberta Capital Cost Allowance (AT1-S13)
In order to help you better monitor accelerated investment incentive properties, several columns have been added to the form.
