Notice is of Assessment ( NOA ) is an evaluation of your tax return that the Canada Revenue Agency sends you every year after you file your tax return. You NOA included the date CRA check your tax return, and the details about how much you may owe, or get as a refund or credit. Your NOA is an important document and is recommended to keep it with your tax records for future purposes. 

 You will receive your Notice of Assessment in the same manner that you submitted your taxes. Therefore, if you filed online, you will receive your Notice of Assessment online. In most cases, you will receive an online Notice of Assessment within two weeks of filing. However, much like with a paper return, you will receive a Notice of Assessment between four to eight weeks.  This could take longer if you filed very close to the deadline and the CRA is busy depending on Covid-19 restrictions.

When you sell your home or when you are considered to have sold it, usually you do not have to pay tax on any gain from the sale because of the principal residence exemption. This is the case if the property was solely your principal residence for every year you owned it. For the sale of a principal residence in 2016 and subsequent years, the CRA will only allow the principal residence exemption if you report the disposition and designation of your principal residence on your income tax and benefit return. If you forget to make this designation in the year of the disposition, it is very important to ask the CRA to amend your income tax return for that year. The CRA will be able to accept a late designation in certain circumstances, but a penalty may apply.

In an effort to reduce paper waste, tax packages will no longer be available at Canada Post or Caisse populaire Desjardins locations. However, taxpayers who do visit their local Canada Post location will find information on how to contact the CRA to get a copy. We recognize that Canadians have diverse needs when it comes to return filing, and we are committed to making sure no one is left behind. Filing taxes by paper has become a tradition for some Canadians. They have been doing it that way for years, and it works for them. To those individuals, I want to assure you that the CRA has not forgotten you, the Paper Filer.

According to CTV News, the costliest tax mistakes made by Canadians are usually related to missed deductions and a lack of understanding about whether they need to file. It is especially important for students to file their returns in order to build credit with the CRA. Many students don’t file because they have no income, but once they graduate and start earning income, they have no credit with the CRA
