This version contains most of the forms released by the tax authorities for the 2020 taxation year. These forms were approved and allow you to file income tax returns for taxpayers who do not require the forms listed in the Calculations and Forms Under Review section of the Release Notes. In addition, returns can be EFILED with this version of Personal Taxprep. For information on the transmission system schedule, please refer to the Electronic Filing section of the Release Notes.

Here is a brief summary of the main changes:

  • T183, Information Return for Electronic Filing of an Individual’s Income Tax Benefit Return (Jump Code: T183)
    The CRA will continue to accept an electronic signature on Form T183 for the 2021 tax filing season. The CRA added three new EFILE fields (electronic signature indicator, signature date, and signature time), which must all be transmitted when Form T183 is electronically signed. Starting with the next version, which is scheduled to be released in mid-March, three new EFILE fields (electronic signature indicator, date of signature and time of signature) will be completed by the program once the taxpayer signed if you are using the electronic signature feature in the CCH iFirm Portal.

  • What’s new with CCH Scan and the Taxprep slips data import
    Data from these two forms can now be imported into Form T2200 (Jump Code: 2200) of Personal Taxprep either from Forms T2200 and T2200S that originate from CCH Scan (using the AutoFlow technology), or from the slip that originates from Taxprep Forms.

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