Now, stop procrastinating and go do your taxes
Have you been procrastinating on doing your income tax return? What could make filing our tax returns an easier and more rewarding a experience? They know how much we have been paid because employers send them that information. Banks and other financial institutions also tell the CRA how much interest or investment income we have earned. And charities report directly to the CRA how much each of us has given in charitable donations.
The CRA could easily just run that info through their computer programs to produce a draft tax return. They would then send that to each of us to check that they got all the information right and"presto!" — taxes are done. This may not work for those who are self-employed or who have complicated financial arrangements, but for the majority of taxpayers, the CRA could easily do our returns for us and it would be less prone to errors.
