We have provided two letters recently released by the Canada Revenue Agency. The first letter from CRA discusses the income tax treatment of payments made by a church to a Syrian refugee family. The second letter from CRA discusses whether a registered charity can return a gift of a life insurance policy to a donor and if so, what are the tax consequences to the registered charity and to the donor.
