While the tax return form that Canadians prepare and file each spring might look identical to the form that was used the previous year, the reality is that our tax system is constantly changing, and that change is reflected in amendments made to each year’s tax return form, which in turn affect the tax situation of every Canadian taxpayer.

Each year, the Canada Revenue Agency publishes a statistical summary of the tax filing patterns of Canadians during the previous filing season. The final statistics for 2023 show that the vast majority of Canadian individual income tax returns – just over 92%, or just under 30 million returns – were filed by electronic means, using one or the other of the CRA’s web-based filing methods. About 2.5 million returns – or just under 8% – were paper-filed.
