Canadian taxes: How can I get copies of my income return and notice assessment for last 3 years?

Question

I need copies to apply for a line of credit. Can my local Revenue Canada branch provide me with copies? Can I go online and print them off?

Thanks.

Answer 1

If your returns were prepared by an accountant, you should ask them for copies as they should have retained copies for their files.



The notices of assessment and copies of returns can be obtained from Canada Revenue Agency but there is usually a delay of at least several weeks for these types of requests.



There is an online service called My Account (link below) that allows you to view tax information and print copies of notices of assessment and other documents.
