This is up to you! By default, an income tax receipt would be issued shortly after receiving your donation. However, if you tell us that you’d prefer to receive a single receipt that includes the total of all your donations in a calendar year, we will typically issue that in the first week of February of the following year. Most of our donation appeals include a checkbox that allows you to choose to have an annual receipt. You may also contact us and make the request. An exception to this are donations made by members of our give12 monthly giving program. They always receive an annual receipt for their scheduled giving and for any eligible donations made during the period they are a monthly donor.
