Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

The Community Volunteer Income Tax Grant
2025-0094
Volunteers from community organizations across Canada help eligible people complete and file their taxes for free through the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA)’s CVITP or through Revenu Quebec’s Income Tax Assistance – Volunteer Program (ITAVP). The CVITP Grant helps off-set costs incurred by community organizations that host free tax clinics and provides funding for the total number of income tax returns filed.
The CVITP Grant is a three year pilot beginning with the 2020 taxation year (returns filed from February 2021 until May 2021) and concluding after tax year 2022 (returns filed up to May 31 2023).
