The CD-ROMs will be shipped starting the week of December 18, 2022.

IMPORTANT: Due to the late arrival of several CRA and Revenu Québec forms, the forms contained in this version have not been approved by the tax authorities. Therefore, do not submit any tax returns that have been prepared with this version to the CRA and Revenu Québec. The electronic transmission of the returns is not available in this version.

Note that, as in previous years, you can still start preparing your tax returns with version 1.0. However, upon printing, the forms will have the Do Not Submit watermark.

Here is a brief summary of the main changes:

  • T1B, Request to Deduct Federal COVID-19 Benefits Repayment in a Prior Year
    It is possible for individuals to claim a deduction for repayments made before January 1, 2023, of certain COVID-19 benefit amounts on their tax return for the year in which they received the benefit rather than on the return for the year in which they repaid the benefit.

  • T1, Income Tax and Benefit Return
    A section named Climate action incentive payment has been added on page 2 of the T1 return for the provinces of Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and Saskatchewan following the removal of Schedule 14.

  • Immediate expensing measure
    The addition of this measure has begun in this version of the program and will be finalized in the next version, which is scheduled for February 2023. Note that the forms related to business, fishing, agriculture and real estate rental income are under review in version 1.0.

For more information with regards to these changes, consult the Release Notes.
