Parent asking for too much information?

[Suzie_Homemaker]

As for the SIN number I never ever give that out to anyone at anytime. All clients will get is a yearly receipt with my signature. I claim everything on my end and I have never had a problem. This is my first year doing daycare but in the past I did do childcare here and there and it was treated the same way.

Parent need SIN on their tax receipt for them to claim child care tax credit. Without your SIN, they cannot claim.

It requirement of CRA.

Only way around is to register business and get business number (BIN) to include on receipt instead.
