Decommissioning the NOA in tax software service

Effective February 9, 2026, notices of assessment and reassessment will be available for viewing exclusively in the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) portals right after the CRA receives and processes the tax return. If you do not have a CRA account or you set your preferences to letter mail, your notice of assessment and/or reassessment will be sent to the mailing address on file.

Also, as a result of this change, Form T183, Information Return for Electronic Filing of an Individual's Income Tax and Benefit Return has been revised to remove the second checkbox in Part E, which previously allowed electronic filers to receive a one-time notice of assessment or reassessment through the EFILE-certified tax software.

Reminder - Be ready to vote in the federal election by checking the appropriate boxes on your tax return.

Elections Canada encourages tax preparers to ask their clients for their consent to check the boxes in the Elections Canada section of their income tax and benefit return. By consenting, eligible clients will make sure they are registered at their current address and ready to vote when a federal election is called. Sharing their name, address, and date of birth with Elections Canada is the easiest way for Canadian citizens to make sure their voter information stays up to date.

Young Canadians aged 14 to 17 who file a tax return can also consent to sharing their information with Elections Canada for the Register of Future Electors. Once eligible future electors turn 18, their information will be added to the National Register of Electors.

Accurate lists of electors allow us to better serve electors, and they also contribute to electoral integrity. Elections Canada thanks you for your continued support during this tax season.
