Recent Tax Changes in Detail

Nunavut Budget Overview

Effective: Annual

Nunavut follows a spring budget cycle, typically presenting its budget within weeks of the federal budget. Provincial income tax changes take effect January 1 of the following year unless otherwise specified. As a territory, Nunavut receives substantial federal transfer payments that fund territorial government programs.

Provincial Income Tax Administration

Effective: Ongoing

Like most provinces (Quebec being the exception), Nunavut residents file a single T1 income tax return with the Canada Revenue Agency. The CRA administers provincial income tax under a tax collection agreement. Provincial amounts appear on Schedule 1 (federal tax) and the provincial form 428 of your T1 return.
