The Canada Revenue Agency began accepting electronic 2025 tax returns on Feb. 23, 2026, with refunds expected within weeks. Paper returns are no longer accepted at Canada Post, as the CRA continues modernization efforts. Taxpayers should ensure they’ve received T4s by Feb. 28, especially if they’ve moved. A new grid-based login verification is available, though text-based logins remain an option. Customer service has improved, with agents reporting increased responsiveness. Farmers are encouraged to use Canadian-designed accounting software.
