The Government of Canada and the Nunatsiavut Government have concluded a personal income tax administration agreement that provides that the Government of Canada will share the field of personal income tax with the Nunatsiavut Government. It also provides for the co-ordination of the Nunatsiavut Personal Income Tax Act with the federal Income Tax Act.

All individuals, including individuals other than Inuit, who reside within Labrador Inuit Lands or within the Inuit communities of Rigolet, Nain, Hopedale, Makkovik, or Postville are required to identify themselves by ticking “Yes” in the “Residency information for tax administration agreements” box on page 1 of the Newfoundland and Labrador 2015 income tax and benefit return.

Individuals, including Inuit, who do not reside within Labrador Inuit Lands or within an Inuit community should tick “No” in the “Residency information for tax administration agreements” box on page 1 of the Newfoundland and Labrador 2015 income tax and benefit return.

The Canada Revenue Agency will use this information to administer the personal income tax administration agreement with the Nunatsiavut Government.
