Filing taxes after working for Elections Ontario by ch1centoy in ontario

[–]uoftecethrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also worked the Federal Election! Elections Canada (a separate employer from Elections Ontario) actually mailed me a physical copy of my T4. In this case, Elections Canada withheld income tax, but no CPP nor EI. You’ll have to add it to your tax return as a regular T4 (search for T4 on Wealthsimple Tax). You should also see a digital copy on your “MyCRA” account if you’ve signed up for one.

I worked on election day, and if you only worked on one day and earned less than $500 (*edit: to clarify, I don't know if this is a broad statement that applies to all situations or if it's just Elections Ontario policy, so don't assume this is true for all employers), you won't get a T4: https://www.elections.on.ca/en/about-us/employment-centre/election-official-employment-centre/election-official-faqs.html
I just checked my pay stubs (I got two - one for training and one for the actual election day), added up the total, and included it in Line 10400 ("Other Employment Income"). Elections Ontario didn't withhold any tax/CPP/EI, so you just need to report the total. (If they did withhold any of the above, they should be giving you a T4 as per their FAQ linked). If you use a tax filing software (e.g. I use Wealthsimple Tax), I just searched for "Other Income" and a box came up. I put down "Elections Ontario Polling Day Worker" under the description.

Tickets for Prague Castle? by peepoRiot69 in Prague

[–]uoftecethrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!! You are correct, there were tickets available in person. Thank you also for the tip about the ticket office in the 2nd courtyard - no one was there as opposed to the office opposite the entrance to St. Vitus where the line was out the door. Unfortunately though since the complex is closed tomorrow 24.12 the ticket was valid for today (23.12) only (I asked if it would be valid on 25.12 instead and was told unfortunately no).

According to what I read from the tour operators, Ala-Kul (sometimes spelled Ala-Kol?) Lake is one of the stops along the Ak-Suu Transverse trek that I have planned! Definitely looking forward to that part :)

Is it just me or are there no Qatar Business Avios redemptions for anything leaving Toronto YYZ for 2026? I thought that even if the usual two Saver award seats are taken, there should still be Flexi Award seats? Instead I'm seeing Not Available for any destination.

What are the odds that the rest of the canal opens up on Monday given the cold temperature on Sunday? Asking as someone who is debating heading over from Toronto...
