Contribution Policy
The United Conservative Party does not accept payment from or issue tax receipts to: towns, villages, municipalities, school districts, corporations, trade unions or employee organizations. Expensing this contribution through a prohibited corporation is a violation of the Election Finances and Contributions Disclosure Act.
For eligible contributions made on or after January 1, 2004, the tax credit for contribution is calculated as the total of:
- 75% of the first $200 of eligible contributions,
- 50% of the next $900 of eligible contributions, and
- 33 1/3% of eligible contributions greater than $1100 up to a maximum of $1000.
The maximum amount any individual can contribute to any candidate, party, constituency association, nomination or leadership contestant or any combination thereof in a calendar year is $4000. Contributors must be ordinarily resident in Alberta.
