SUMMARY:Affordable Group Zoom Session: Support to Apply for the Disability Tax Credit (DTC)

The DTC is a non-refundable tax credit which helps reduce the income tax that people with physical or mental impairments\, or their supporting family members\, may have to pay. It aims to offset some of the costs related to the impairment. The great thing about the DTC is that once you are approved\, it will automatically be applied to future tax years!

For the second phase of the application\, participants will need a registered\, qualified clinician to complete the verification process for the DTC. \nThis is an IWSCC Certified Supplier Event\, hosted by Jenine Lillian Neurodiversity Consulting & Education.\nTo learn more about the host or to contact them about this event please see this digital flyer or visit www.jeninelillian.com \nCost to Attend:\nThe cost to attend this event is $30 for general tickets; $25 for students or unemployed persons. \nAccessibility Features at this Event:\nTranscript and closed captioning available\, as well as OtterAI notetaker.
