Not sure where to start with your taxes? Don’t fret. The TD York U Community Engagement Centre, the Canada Revenue Agency and Chartered Professional Accountants provide workshops to support Black Creek residents in filing their taxes.

- Social assistance
- The Guaranteed Income
- Supplement (GIS) for seniors
- The Ontario Student Loan Program (OSAP)
- The Canada Child Tax Benefit and GST Benefit
