Do you believe SimpleFile, CRA’s newly revamped automated tax system, will help more Canadians access tax benefits and comply with the tax system?

in my 15+ Years of business people are comfortable dealing with a person—bet it Direct deposit request, or filing it through telephone banking (started during covid) or volunteer tax centers——- cra keeps forgetting these people need social contact—- they are already ignored and are asked to be on their own

CRA’s attempt to make things easier with this simplefile is just a way for CRA to get more money.  When one does not have a real person doing the actual tax return there is lots of room for error.

CRA can’t get anything right. Since the Change to the new Digital System, we have had more of the same clients being audited/reviewed for the same thing / donations, medical expenses for three year period (2021,2022,2023,2024)when the documents are exact to the penny for each year reviewed!  Anything to try to get money from the taxpayers.  Very frustrating for the clients.

There will always be people who don’t have a digital phone for the numbers, don’t feel comfortable talking on the phone or to people they don’t know, English/French is not their language so need an interpreter or someone to actually read their paperwork.
