When do I need to file my Canadian Charity’s T3010A or T3010B Registered Charity Information Return?

Every Canadian registered charity has to file a T3010 information return each year. The return must be filed no later than six months after the end of the charity’s fiscal period. 

For example, if your charity’s fiscal period end is March 31st, its annual information return is due by September 30th.  With the introduction of the new T3010B, Canadian registered charities with fiscal years ending in 2008 continue filing the T3010A while charities with a fiscal year end falling after January 1, 2009 will file the new T3010B.  Hope this attached chart is helpful.
