Canada Revenue Agency\u2019s \u2018targeted interest relief program\u2019 will automatically waive the interest on what you owe for 2020, if you received a Covid-related benefit. You must also file your return, and have income below $75,000, to be eligible.<\/p>\n<p>Ask your Financial Advisor to help you plan for this repayment.
