Can I pay for my kids registration fees through the ASF platform?

No – only voluntary donations and gifts are eligible for a tax deduction through the ASF. Additionally, donors cannot receive a material benefit in return for their donation.  

Payments for membership, registration or any other fees, levies or charges are not gifts/donations, and should not be made on the ASF platform and claimed as a tax deduction.  

It is the taxpayer who makes a claim for a deduction on their tax return and the onus is on the taxpayer to assure themselves of their eligibility to claim a deduction for a particular gift to ASF, as with gifts to any other Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR).
