When are T4s due, tax deadline for 2022 and other important dates

April 30th may be burned into your brain as the date when taxes are due, but this year that is not the case—it falls on a Sunday in 2023…

There’s more to college and university than the classes. Navigating the costs that come with a post-secondary program is just as much a learning experience as Psych 101—for both students and their parent(s) and/or guardian(s). And with that in mind, this comprehensive guide includes articles for those going to school and those who are supporting them (including emotionally). 

The MoneySense Student Money Guide begins with the basics: How to help children understand the value of money; how to set them up with their first bank accounts; and all about registered education savings plans (RESPs).

When kids are grown and ready for college or university, check out the sections on applying for student loans, scholarships and bursaries; covering tuition costs; handling housing expenses; and more.
