Please note that AgriStability Info Sessions have started and are available to the public.
Individuals, co-operatives and corporations can participate in AgriStability.

To be eligible, you must have:
farmed for at least six straight months during the program year and reported your farming income (or loss) to Canada Revenue Agency for tax purposes; and
completed (or attempted to complete) a production cycle during the program year.

Status Indians farming on reserves in Canada are eligible to participate in AgriStability. You must provide the information that would otherwise have been reported for tax purposes for the program and reference years and meet all other eligibility criteria and program deadlines to be eligible.

*If records are not available, the farm's income history will be estimated based on information for the current year. Participants need to complete a Productive Capacity Worksheet. For more details, or a copy of this worksheet, please contact us at the number listed below.

Status Indians farming on a reserve are not required to report farm income, or loss, to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) for taxation purposes under Section 87 of the Indian Act. Information provided to the CAIS administration is used solely to calculate program benefits, and is not used or kept by CRA for income tax purposes.
