www.globalphilanthropy.ca Which Universities Outside of Canada are prescribed universities under Schedule VIII of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and therefore qualified donees? By Mark Blumberg (September 15, 2011) There is a list of prescribed universities outside of Canada that are considered qualified donees under the Income Tax Act. For a foreign (non-Canadian) university it is beneficial to be a qualified donee because you can easily receive donations from Canadians and issue them official donation receipts. As well, it is easier to transfer funds from a Canadian charity or foundation to a qualified donee. Many people find it difficult to locate the regulation with a list of the prescribed foreign universities so below is a link to the complete regulation and a copy of the small part of the regulation dealing with prescribed universities as at August 2011. (prescribed universities are at or near the bottom of the lengthy regulation.) Foreign universities who have Canadian students at them and are interested in applying for qualified donee status can read our article “Foreign Universities Fundraising in Canada” at http://www.globalphilanthropy.ca/images/uploads/Foreign_Universities_Fundraising_In_Canada.pdf Alternatively you can contact us and our contact information is at the bottom of this note. http://www.canlii.org/en/ca/laws/regu/crc-c-945/latest/crc-c-945.html Income Tax Regulations C.R.C., c. 945 INCOME TAX ACT SCHEDULE VIII www.globalphilanthropy.ca (s. 3503) UNIVERSITIES OUTSIDE CANADA 1.
