The deadline for filing your 2023 personal tax return is at the close (30th) of April 2024. If you and your spouse (common law) are not a self-employed person (no self-employed tax return), then the 2023 personal tax filing deadline is the end of April 2024.

Tax Filing Deadline (for 2023) is 17th June 2024 – Self-employed

If you or your spouse/common-law partner is self-employed, the filing deadline extends to June 17, 2024, for 2023 tax filing if you (your spouse) have self-employment income/loss for 2023. Normally it is the 15th of June but as this year (2024) the 15th of June is on Saturday, the deadline for self-employed people to file is officially the 17th of June 2024.

It’s essential to note that although the deadline for PAYING any taxes owed for 2023 remains at the end of April, self-employed individuals have until June 15, 2024, to FILE their tax returns.
