Revoked

Registration as a charity or Canadian amateur athletic association has been cancelled and the privileges that go with it have been taken away. The organization can no longer issue official donation receipts and is no longer eligible to receive gifts from registered charities.

Registration as a charity or Canadian amateur athletic association is officially revoked when a notice is published in the Canada Gazette.

Registration may be revoked because the charity or Canadian amateur athletic association:

  • chooses to give up its registration (voluntary revocation);
  • does not file its annual return or does not file it on time (revocation for failure to file); or
  • is found to be non-compliant with the requirements for registration under the Income Tax Act (revocation for cause).
