Understanding the Disability Tax Credit [webcast]

WHEN: October 29, 2025 at 7pm

Applying for the Disability Tax Credit (DTC) is an essential first step in financial planning for people with disabilities. This credit not only reduces the tax burden for the individual or their caregiver, but also opens the door to other valuable credits and programs, including the new Canada Disability Benefit which rolled out in July 2025.
