Tax credit and Relevé 24

Did you know that registration fees for day camps qualify for a tax credit? Depending on your family income, you may be eligible for a reimbursement of these fees ranging from 67% to 78% from the provincial government, plus an additional deduction from the federal government.

The Relevé 24, which allows you to benefit from these tax breaks, is automatically generated by our registration platform Amilia towards the end of February following the summer your child was enrolled. For more details, please visit the Quebec Camps Association website.
