EFILE for Electronic Filers

EFILE is an automated service that permits those who prepare and file taxes on behalf of others to electronically file the current year income tax and benefit return to the CRA via the Internet. Choose from our two methods of electronic transmission. To become a registered electronic filer you must first register or, if you already have an efiler number, you must renew.

• EFILE On-Line - allows you to transmit your client's returns individually over the Internet. You get an acknowledgement of the individual return instantly.
  
  
• EFILE On-Line Plus - allows you to transmit from 1 to 60 of your client's returns at one time over the Internet. When you send a batch of returns, acknowledgement takes only a few hours. With approval from the CRA, you can also access data from the System of Electronic Notification of Debt (SEND).
