Working income tax benefit

Hi, I'm Raymond from the Canada Revenue Agency. I'd like to tell you about the Working Income Tax Benefit. This tax benefit is designed to help working individuals and families with low incomes, and it includes a supplement for individuals who qualify for the disability tax credit.

You may be able to claim the Working Income Tax Benefit when filing your income tax return. If you're eligible, you can also apply for advance payments of up to one half of your estimated 2009 Working Income Tax Benefit amount. To apply for Working Income Tax Benefit advance payments, use Form RC201. To learn more about the Working Income Tax Benefit, go to cra.gc.ca/witb.

Excuse me, my phone is ringing. I should take this call. Canada Revenue Agency, Raymond speaking, how may I help you?
