what he means to say is when u file ur tax return u will most likely get all of it refunded. the reason being ur a student and there r some fee credits etc.....i got around $1200 back even though i worked only 1 sem.
Its funny but i would like to explain you why i talked about PR coz if i worked more then 20 hours there are issues which i face once i finish studies.
"The tuition, education, and textbook amounts allows you to reduce any income tax you may owe.
Your educational institution will provide you with a slip that has the total eligible tuition fees paid as well as the months you were enrolled either part-time or full-time.
As a nonrefundable credit, if the tuition amount is greater than the tax owed, the credit eliminates the student's tax bill but won't generate a refund; unused credits can be carried forward or transferred in some cases "
Id suggest both of you read up on taxation before immediately assuming I'm wrong.
