Im in Canda on a working visa & have T4 forms from jobs. Who can I go to for info on how to submit tax return?


Shouldnt it be different for travellers who are not Canadian residents?

Yes, you have to file just like a citizen of Canada does. If you do not want to do the paperwork yourself you may go to a company like H & R Block. They are very fast at filing a return and depending on the situation they sometimes give you cash back on your return that day. That is if you qualify. They have regulations like you can not owe any other departments of the government money or they will deny your request for instant cash back. It is very simple to do your own taxes here too as long as you got a good celculator and can read english well they have all the instructions with the forms on how to fill them out. I do mine every year for me and my company. It takes me about four or five hours but that is mostly because of the company. Good Luck... Here is H & R Blocks Website so you can see if you have one near you. IF you do it yourself they will sometimes answer questions if you are having troubles too. http://www.hrblock.ca/

You should go your nearest post office and get a copy of the blank cdn tax return to fill in all your T4 info and deductions (taxes, EI & CPP), and mail the return to the Canada Revenue Agency per the envelope provided.

RE: You additional details:
Non residents of Canada have to file cdn tax return to report the cdn income if they have employemnt income in Canada, as shown by your T4 income.

Here is link on completing and sending your tax return:http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/tax/individuals...

You are a resident for tax purposes, so you have to file just like Canadians do. Go to CRA's website, there is lots of information on there, including for non-residents.
