So How Many People Have Already Filed their Taxes ?

Just filed yesterday...we are getting a pretty nice rebate so I'm looking forward to that money showing up in our account! We'll be putting some of it towards our mortgage and the rest we are saving for a new roof.

Finally filed today (had been waiting on my T4). Very happy that we don't owe the government any money this year!! :)

I have to have my son's renewed as well since they lost it :twisted: Did I say I hate tax time lol

It depends on when the disability started, and how the doctor expresses it on the form. The tax certificate can lead to a big difference financially, but can be difficult to obtain because the criteria are quite strict. Good luck! :)

Both DH and I have filed and received refunds back. :biggrin:

Just sent ours away yesterday - getting a nice refund, partly due to First Time Homebuyers tax credit - will be putting this towards the bill for our new furnace

Extremely Impressed with TELEFILE

Telefiled my return on April 9 ..they processed & assed it on April 11 :shock: ..so that's just in 2 Days !!! ..and they are depositing my refund on April 18 :shock:

:) I know! It's super fast - last year I mailed mine in, and it took a couple months to get it - and I didn't get a readjustment til Dec. This year, I got my refund in 2 weeks + when I had to do a re-adjustment, it only took them like 5 days to put it through:top::lol:

Mailed it yesterday afternoon-here's hoping it gets to the destination prior to any mail strike or other slowdown before April 30.

I really like reading about the quick turnarounds that SCers are having with the Telefile program. Encouraging!:top:

Mine ( refund ) is being deposited tomorrow :)

Timeline :

April 9 - TELEFILED

April 11 - Processed/Assesed by CRA

April 18 - Direct Deposit in my bank

We do our own taxes, and our sons. Netfiled and had the refunds within two weeks, that was about 3 weeks ago now. We always defer our oldests uni. tutuion to hubbys return (the highest) then give the boy the $ for the next semesters tuition. We have used Block before, once when we had moving exp., and another time for WCB. The price of 1 tax program, that does all 4/5 of our returns is less than paying Block for one.
