Learn about all CRA requirements at their website: http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/charitiesandgiving

IMPORTANT

The new receipt will consume more space on the page, you may need to adjust the content of your letter to ensure everything fits on the page.
If you have designed your own receipts you may need to make changes to satisfy CRA requirements.
