Corporation Internet Filing will ask you to provide the
corporation's electronic signature with the following information
on its online transmission form:
- Business Number
- Taxation Year End
- Corporation's assigned Web Access Code or EFILE On-Line number
and password
- Path and name of the file containing your electronic
corporation income tax return (".cor" extension)
After you fill in and send the Corporation Internet Filing
online transmission form, we will do a preliminary check of your
return. If it meets the basic requirements, we'll send you a
confirmation number within seconds. This means that your
tax return has been accepted for processing.
If there are any problems with the electronic tax return you
sent us, we'll send you back an explanation of the errors or
corrections needed. This means that your tax return was not
accepted for processing. You should save, print, or note
all messages we send. Before trying to retransmit the return, you
must change the electronic version of the tax return by making the
appropriate corrections according to the error messages you
received. For information on making changes to an electronic tax
return, see Corrections.
If your return has been accepted for processing, do not submit a paper copy of the return. After we have processed your return, we may need to contact you
to obtain supporting documents, so remember to keep your
receipts and information slips for at least six years.
This is part of the same verification process that applies to all
tax returns, whether paper or electronic.
