FOUNDATION OF ONTARIO mproving your odds against Canada's #t kilter Lucknow Sentinel, Wednesday. tianuary 6, 1993 - Page 15 E -filed tax returns = faster refunds This year, for the first time, taxpayers all over Canada will be able to file 'their personal income tax returns electronically: "Efiling" as it is calle0,, began al a pilot project ,,in Manitoba back in 1990 With approximately 2,000 1989 tax returns. The program was expandeli in 1991 to include Alberta, Saskatchewan and the Northwest Territories, and in 1992, Quebec, British Columbia and the Yukon were brought into the system. Last year,' over 500,000 tax returns were filed electronically. Now, with Ontario and the Atlantic provinces being added to the pro-. gram, Efiling of 1992 tax returns will be available to, taxpayers in every province and territory. How does ' Efiling work? It's really pretty simple. You have youir tax return prepared using one of several Revenue Canada approved Ti software packages - most accounting fares or tax preparers use them. The program creates an "electronic profile" of your return, containing all the information the tax authorities need to process , it. This profile is then sent by an auth- orized transmitter over special tele- phone lines directly to a goverlm- ment assessing centre in Ottawa. Within three hours, the transmitter receives an acknowledgement report -- evidens% that your return has been filed and accepted by Revenue Canada. ` And that's it - no need to send any T -slips, receipts, forms or paper of any kind. Of course, if, you owe money, you, still have to send the government a cheque accompanied by a special form, but yotr can do this at your local financial institu- tion. However, 'for the millions of Canadians who receive refunds each year, the program offers some real advantages. Based on past•experi- ence, taxpayers who Efile should have their . returns assessed and' refunds issued much more quickly than for paper returns. And those taxpayers who opt for direct deposit may get their money even sooner. The local BDO Dunwoody Ward Mallette office is one accounting firm which plans to use Efiling for any. clients • that agree to it. "We think the Efile program is great for taxpayers", says Gary. Munro, C.A., a local BDO partner. "Refunds will be received muchfaster, and there should be a • lot fewer follow-up requests from Revenue for addi- tional information or .mission slips and receipts." Of course, Revenue Canada still reserves the right to check your return at a later date and request additional information, so you have to ensure that either -you or your preparer keeps all the backup for the return. But this isn't any differ- ent that under the current system' where you file paper returns. . The real winner in. the . whole. • proems is Revenue Canada. Efiling should cut down on the mountains of returns they receive each year that have to be processed and stored. In addition, there should be a lot fewer errors, since Revenue Canada employees will not longer have to key tax returns, into the Department's system. Efiled returns: are processed quickly and directly by the Department's computers. And since the whole process is paperless, Efiling is environmentally friendly. If a large number of Cana- dians Efile their tax returns, the dollar and paper savings will be, significant. • Not everyone can Efile though. For instance, non-residents with certain Canadian -source income must continue to file the paper returns, as well as taxpayers who carry on business m mote than one jurisdiction. However, the excep- tions are so few 'that approximately 95% of all personal tax returns should be eligible for the program this year. Revenue Canada expects over a million and a half 1992 tax returns will be Efiled by the end of April 1993. 392.6¢69 l..IOTT.
