Frequently Asked Questions

Your queries about Canadian tax processes answered

What are the basic steps to file taxes in Canada?
To file your taxes in Canada, gather relevant documents, complete federal and provincial forms, report any revenue sources, claim eligible deductions and credits, and submit your return online or by mail before the deadline.
How can I claim eligible deductions on my return?
Identify deductible expenses such as allowable work-related costs or education fees, retain proper receipts, follow CRA guidelines for each category, and enter totals in the designated sections of your return.
