This episode provides a comprehensive Legal Document Checklist for Mosques in Canada to ensure compliance with federal and provincial regulations. The discussion emphasizes that maintaining proper documentation is crucial for mosques to retain their charitable status and avoid penalties under the Income Tax Act and various provincial acts like the CNCA and ONCA. The checklist details seven key categories of required records, including Incorporation Documents (such as Articles and Bylaws), Charity Registration Documents (like the CRA Confirmation Letter and T3010 filings), and records for Financial Matters, Board Meetings, and Property Agreements.
The episode also addresses frequently asked questions about registering a religious organization, tax exemptions, and necessary permits for construction.
