Transitional Assistance Program

Source Deductions

We are required to deduct the following amounts for income tax from all cash payments of Transitional Assistance Program funding:
  • On the first $5,000.00 or less, we deduct ten per cent.
  •  On amounts from $5,000.01 to $15,000.00, we deduct 20 per cent.
  •  On amounts of $15,000.01 and up, we deduct 30 per cent.

These source deductions are not marked on the cheque(s) you receive, but will appear on the T4A tax slip you will receive.

Deductions are not taken from funding you direct us to deposit directly into a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP).
