- you are self-employed or
- are doing returns for deceased persons or

We encourage you to complete the Client Information Sheets , including the 3 highlighted signature areas, prior to dropping your documents off at 100 – 1000 21st Ave N Cranbrook, BC to limit the amount of time you spend in the office.
Or you can scan, password protect (ensure you tell us the password in a separate email) and email all documents, including the completed Client Information Sheets to incometax@cmhakootenays.org
Only 1 person / household is allowed in the lobby area at a time, so if you see someone inside, please wait outside.
We will contact you once your income tax returns have been filed and you can come pick up your documents.
