In essence, we're encour- aging you to expand your work force by providing a tax break for your business. The potential annual tax credit for each new em- ployee is over $3,000. And there is no limit to the number of new employees you can hire. Now, by using the expe- rience we've gained so far, we've changed the program to make it even more attractive. Up to 331A% more tax credit. The maximum term for the tax credit has been increased from nine to 12 months for each new employee.That means up to 331% more tax credit. Greater eligibility We have expanded the number and types of busi- nesses eligible to benefit. Now almost every business that's been operating in Canada for a year or more can join in. Wider choice of new employees. Now, almost anyone who's unemployed and regis- tered at a Canada Employ- ment Centre for a minimum of two weeks is eligible. A minimum of red tape. We've simplified the procedure, so you can do the whole thing, from begin- ning to end, with just two single -page forms.
