1️⃣ Late-filing penalty (if you owe money)

If you owe taxes and file after the deadline:

5% of the balance owing right away

+1% per month for up to 12 months

📌 If you’ve filed late before, penalties can be much higher.

2️⃣ Interest charges

CRA charges daily compounding interest on unpaid taxes and penalties

Interest keeps adding up until the balance is fully paid

3️⃣ You could lose benefits (temporarily)

Filing late can delay or stop:

GST/HST credit

Canada Child Benefit (CCB)

Climate Action Incentive payments

4️⃣ Refunds are delayed (but not lost)

If you’re owed a refund, there’s no penalty

But you won’t receive it until you file

5️⃣ CRA collections (if ignored)

If taxes remain unpaid:

CRA can garnish wages

Freeze bank accounts

Withhold future refunds/benefits

✅ What to do if you’re late

File as soon as possible (even if you can’t pay)

Set up a payment plan with CRA

Request penalty relief if you had a valid reason (illness, emergency, etc.)
