Information regarding filing your taxes and your tax forms can be found on the York Website at http://sfs.yorku.ca/fees/taxforms/

Below is a summary from the website, for more information and to access your online tax forms please go directly to the website.

All York students, current and past, can print their completed T2202A and T4A tax forms directly from the Web by using the Electronic Forms Retrieval System (EForms).

T2202A

This government-approved form shows how much tuition you have paid for the prior calendar year and what your Education Credits are for the period. T2202A forms will not be mailed.

T4A

The Canada Revenue Agency requires York to report bursaries, scholarships, awards, prizes and senior and exchange waiver amounts provided to students. These amounts are shown as income with code 105. This amount reflects amounts you have received from York during the calendar year, i.e. January 1 to December 31.

Your T4A forms are available online and a hard copy is mailed to the address on your York student record by the end of February.

T4

This tax form, which shows any income you have earned at York, is mailed separately by Human Resources and Employee Relations (Payroll Department). T4 forms are not yet available online.

Ontario Tax Credit

If you lived in a residence at a designated Ontario university, college or private school residence, you can claim only $25 as your occupancy cost for the part of the year you lived in such a residence.

Ontario tax credits are funded by the province. Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) administers the program on behalf of Ontario through the federal income tax system. Claim your $25 tax credit on the Application for the 2012 Ontario Trillium Benefit and the Ontario Senior Homeowners’ Property Tax Grant (student residence line 6114) included in your federal T1-General income tax return. An official letter from the University is not required as the student completes the information requested in the declaration for the property tax credit.

Information on CRA regulations and guidelines for tuition and education amounts can be found online on the Students and Income Tax page.
