​​FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:​​

I'm missing income tax slips, what do I do?

We may be able to access certain missing tax slips for you on the CRA website.  If the income tax slips have not been reported to CRA, you will need to contact the issuer to have them sent to you.

I filed my taxes, how long will my refund take?

If electronically filed before the deadline & you have direct deposit setup with Canada Revenue Agency, refunds will take 10 days. Add 1 week for cheque mailing. Other circumstances such as Pre-assessments, late filing & special deductions can hold up processing times by CRA.
