Students in eligible programs who paid over $100 in combined tuition and activity fees during the previous calendar year are eligible for a T2202A tax form.
Your tax form can be printed by accessing your student record, beginning February 1. These forms are no longer mailed to students.
Should you require assistance with accessing or printing your tax form, please call the Records Department at 250-753-3245, Ext. 2757, or e-mail Records@viu.ca. Toll-free call 1-888-920-2221, Ext. 2757.
It could be well worth your time to check out the Canada Revenue Agency website for changes to regulations that may affect your tax eligibility.
For tax years prior to 2004, you must order a duplicate T2202A
Duplicate T2202A’s can be ordered for tax years prior to 2004 for a small fee. These are made available for pick-up or mail-out as soon as possible upon receiving a request with payment, usually within 7 business days. We use Canada Post, regular mail; we do not make Courier arrangements. If you require a duplicate, please follow the instructions below:
Information Required on T2202A Duplicate Request form:
- First and last name, current mailing address and phone number (if name has changed, please tell us).
- Student number while at VIU.
- Tax year for which you require the duplicate. This is a Revenue Canada form, and conforms to a tax year (Jan. - Dec.), not an academic year. Multiple years can be requested on one form.
- Where you would like the T2202A form(s) sent.
Cost of Duplicate T2202A (prior to 2004 only)
$35 per copy for every income tax year for which you require a duplicate; an academic year starts in the Fall, and goes to the Spring of the following year, so it’s possible you may need more than one income tax year to be covered.
Additional cost for faxing
There is a $7.00 charge added per each faxing destination. You must provide the fax number and the name of the person to whose attention you want the pages faxed.
Methods of Placing the Order, and Payment
