People are not eligible for the help if they have capital gains or losses, employment expenses, business/rental income and expenses.

Anyone filing on behalf of a deceased person is not elibigle unless that person died in 2020.

Each appointment is 30 minutes and is for one tax year. For example if a husband and wife are booking for one year, they must book two appointments.

People are asked to bring picture ID to their appointments as well as all their tax slips.
