Student Tax Receipts

No, Academic Upgrading is not eligible as these high school level courses prepare the student for future program enrollment, not provide or obtain skills in an occupation.

The T2202 form only reflects the eligible fees for courses occurring within a tax year. Not all fees that are paid are eligible fees. The T2202 only covers terms of studies that occur during the tax year in which you attended training or classes, not when you paid for the tuition.

For example:

• If you paid for your courses in 2023 but they didn't start until 2024, you will be eligible for a T2202 form in 2024.
• If you are in a course that runs from November 2023 to February 2024, the amount that will be reflected on your 2023 return will be pro-rated based on the number of hours that occurred in 2023.

Academic fees, admission fees, charges for the use of library or laboratory facilities, examination fees, application fees (but only if the student later enrolls in the institution), charges for a certificate, diploma, or degree, mandatory computer service fees, only books that are included in the total fees for a correspondence course and athletic and health services fees.

Student Association fees, medical expenses, transportation and parking, meals and lodging, costs of goods of lasting value that you will keep (for example uniforms), professional association fees, cost of books not included in correspondence course fees, UPass charges, upgrading and leisure class fees.

Full-time eligibility: to be eligible for a full-time month, the student must attend a minimum of 10 hours per week for three consecutive weeks.

Part-time eligibility: the student must attend at least three consecutive weeks to equal a minimum of 12 hours in a month.

Classes at SAIT are scheduled to run until 10 minutes to the hour. This affects your full or part-time month eligibility. For example, a class scheduled from 1:00 pm until 2:50 pm qualifies for 2.83 hours/week towards a month calculation for the T2202.

Sports and summer camps do not qualify as tuition so a T2202 form is not produced. Effective the 2017 tax year, the Child Fitness Tax credit has been eliminated.

Registration receipts can be obtained by contacting SAIT's Finance Department by submitting a request ticket through Freshdesk. Please be sure to include your child's full name and date of birth in your request.
