British Columbia Training Tax Credit

B.C. offers a credit to employers based on the salary and wages paid to an apprentice:

  • Basic tax credit: for apprentices in the first 24 months of a non-Red Seal program

  • Completion tax credit: when an apprentice completes level three or four of either a Red Seal program or a non-Red Seal program

  • Enhanced tax credit: for apprentices who are individuals registered under the Indian Act or who qualify for the disability amount on their income tax and benefit return (all levels of both Red Seal and non-Red Seal programs)

Employers can claim a refundable tax credit if they are a taxable corporation with a permanent establishment in the province and they paid salary and wages before January 1, 2025, to an employee who was registered in a prescribed program administered through SkilledTradesBC.
