Frequently Asked Questions about Tax Forms:


Do I have to provide my SIN to the University?

Yes. As of the 2019 tax year, if you are planning to file a Canadian tax return, Canada Revenue Agency requires that you provide your Social Insurance Number (SIN) or Individual Tax Number (ITN) so that it can be recorded on your annual tax year T2202 and/or T4A.

What if I am an International Student? Do I still need to provide a SIN?

Maybe. International students can view the Canada Revenue Agency information for international students  and details about residency for tax purposes, to determine if you are eligible to file a Canadian tax return.  If not eligible or NOT required to file a Canadian tax return, SIN/ITN is not required on T2202 and T4A so you are NOT required to apply for a SIN/ITN for the sole purpose of reporting it to Lakehead University

If I provide my SIN/ITN after my Tax Forms have been filed with CRA, will I get a new form issued?

No. If you update your SIN/ITN after the annual filing with CRA, your update will not result in a new/amended T2202 or T4A form. Instead, your SIN/ITN update will apply to the subsequent tax year.

Why is my name not showing up in full on my Tax Form?

The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has limited the number of characters to 12 characters for first names and 20 characters for last names; therefore, your name may be truncated for T2202 purposes. This will not affect your ability to use this document.

My address is incorrect on my Tax Form, will I require a new form?

No. If your address has changed, you do not need to request an update. This will not affect your ability to use this document.
