Income Tax for UN personnel

[safiullahliaqat]

Dear all,

I am working for the UN as an international civilian staff member stationed in the field missions in Africa and I am new to Canada my family is living in Canada, Ontario. I would like to get some information about income tax in Canada for salaries and benefits i get from the UN. I have been reading that UN staff are exempt from income tax but I am not too sure if it's still valid. Is there any rule and provision on this.

Any elaboration and experience in this matter will be highly appreciated.

Regards
