Need a professional help me correct this and file properly amendment for CRA for overpayment and then the % specific for Revenue Quebec.

Would rather seek a professional to help me correct this as it's the first time doing this.

Do you have you MyCRA access set up?

I think the best thing to do as a self filer is call a CRA agent, say you want to update/fix the T5013 input via the MyCRA portal to change your return and ask the agent for step by step instructions on how to do so.

I don't think professional help will make sense unless it's a seriously messed up situation. You might even be better off waiting for the reassessment and paying the minor (hopefully) interest and penalties than the full cost of professional help.

Got a notification from CRA. They're moving all Representative Authorization to two-step.

So...if you don't have a CRA MyAccount...you'd better get one.

Why is TFSA Contribution room data still unavailable on the CRA site? I got an email saying I over contributed in 2024, but I certainly didn't... What a gong show.

Because that thing is a gigantic POS that hasn't worked properly in all of 2025 as of yet.

I think I mentioned it before, but in 2024 every other login they want me to take a 'short survey' and then in 2025 not a peep. I wonder why? I'd love to give them some updated feedback.

The dates on the NOA piss me off. I don't understand the point of future dating NOA 10+ days since they introduced the express NOA process 2-3 years ago. A bunch of their generic "helpful" reminders are confusing and cause panic.

"CRA says I have to pay my 2024 taxes again!"
"Actually, the NOA is future dated and says you owe that amount, less amounts already paid..."
"But I paid before the date on this letter!"
"That payment is showing in your statement of account, don't worry. Subtract about 10-12 days from the NOA date and the letter makes more sense."

Oh I do despise the way they do that now.
