Update on the availability of tax slips in Auto-fill my return and CRA portals
Beginning in January 2025, the CRA introduced a new validation process for organizations that submit information returns (like financial institutions and employers) to ensure the accuracy of the data they submit. While this change improves data quality, some issuers have had difficulties uploading tax slips, resulting in certain slips not appearing in My Account, or Represent a Client, as early as in previous years.
It should be noted that the difficulties experienced by issuers are separate and apart from their obligation to distribute slips to recipients by the filing deadline. As a result, we expect most taxpayers to have already received a copy of the slips they need to complete their tax returns.
The CRA is actively working with issuers to address any outstanding issues and ensure tax slips are made available as soon as possible.
