Hi!
I have two loans - one with the Government of Canada and one with Manitoba. No bank loans to speak of. I'm in the RAP and have been for about ~36mo now so heading toward stage 2 but not there yet.
My question is this: will the government collect my tax refunds while I'm in the RAP? GST refunds?
Any help would be very appreciated.

Income tax or GST liens are anchored only if the loans go into default.

In other words, I'd need to stop applying for assistance and not cough up the minimum payments? That is a relief. A HUGE relief. As nice as it would be to have a sizable chunk paid off, as long as I'm not currently paying interest on it, it seems much more in my favour to have that money in my pocket to try to propel myself into a better position to pay off those student loans.

I just answered your question about the income tax and GST seizure query of yours. Review the RAP policy for other details.
