NEWBIE!!! Starting up home daycare in Kitchener Ontario and confused! pls help!

Hello! *waves* I am new to this wonderful forum and have been on the phone all afternoon with the CRA, service ontario, region and zoning and have been told 26400343,0304340 different things. SO here i am! HELP! :laugh:
Im currently a stay at home mommy with two little monsters (3.5 and 18mths) and want to take in no more then 2 children (aside from my own of course) All i want to know is, what type of documentation do i need to write receipts for the parents and be able to claim expenses at the end of the tax year? Just a business number?OR do i require anything else?
Thank you in advance!

Hi and welcome!!

You technically need to provide your SIN number if you get paid personally instead of through a registered business but some people don't.

There is a booklet you can request from CRA that outlines what you need to keep in your records, tax write offs etc.

Best of luck!!

No matter where you live in Ontario, make contact with the CCPRN here in Ottawa. On their main page they have a link to a start up kit that contains a lot of information. www.ccprn.com
