CRA Netfile problems

xmontrealer · Mar 24, 2019

So after carefully doing my taxes using Turbotax today, and then trying to file my return via CRA Netfile, it fails 3 times, despite there being no discernible issues in my return that would cause it to fail.

5 fails and the CRA locks you out of Netfile so you will have to mail them your return with all slips and receipts.

So I checked on google and apparently the CRA website is having problems now and many other people are experiencing the same issue.

Wondering if any of you guys are experiencing it as well, and when can I be confident enough to try it again?

Didn't they have problems last year too, so they extended the deadline? Not surprised they're having trouble again. It's a government run website: they pay double for an inferior product riddled with bugs.

The only problem I had was due to a slip having missing information. I added the information myself and it went through no problem.

I had no problem filing with Netfile. But then I use Studio Tax which is free and just as good as Turbo Tax.

I had no problems with Netfile using Turbotax. Good luck on your next attempt, hopefully whatever was there is cleared up by now.

Fwiw the CRA servers are back up now and accepting Netfile.

If it's for personal taxes only just attach your T4 and sign your tax form. The CRA is obligated to complete the form. And why the hell are we paying income taxes anyways ?
