What Types of Tax Returns Can You File Remotely?

Remote tax filing isn’t just for simple returns. Thanks to secure digital systems and our experienced tax preparers, most types of returns can be filed online. Whether your tax situation is straightforward or complex, we can help.

Here are some common tax return filing services we can do remotely:

  • Filing personal income tax returns: Covers employment income, pensions, and RRSP withdrawals, as well as self-employment income, such as freelance earnings and sole proprietorships
  • Reporting rental property income: Tracks revenue, maintenance, and mortgage expenses
  • Declaring foreign income: Includes earnings or assets held outside Canada
  • Filing family tax returns: Combines spousal and dependent income for credits
  • Submitting prior-year or late returns: Resolves missed filings and CRA penalties

Can Self-Employed Individuals File Online?

Self-employed individuals can absolutely file their taxes remotely. In fact, remote tax filing is often the preferred option for freelancers and small business owners who are busy running their operations.

Our online process allows you to upload receipts, invoices, business expenses, and mileage logs securely from your device. We’ll help ensure all eligible deductions are applied and CRA rules are followed so that you can stay focused on your business, not your bookkeeping.

Accountants-BC Ltd.’s Remote Tax Filing Services

We’ve designed our remote services to be just as thorough and professional as in-person meetings. Every return we file is reviewed by an experienced tax professional, and our secure systems protect your personal data every step of the way.

With us, you can expect:

  • Friendly and timely communication
  • Flexible virtual consultations
  • Clear checklists of what we need from you
  • Secure document upload portals
  • Thorough review of your income and deductions
  • CRA-compliant filing practices
  • Confirmation of submission and refund estimates
  • Ongoing support for follow-ups and audits

What Happens After You File Remotely?

Once your documents are submitted and we’ve finalized your return, we file your taxes electronically using CRA’s EFILE system. The CRA typically confirms receipt of your return within a day or two, and you’ll receive a digital confirmation from us shortly after.

How Will You Know Your Taxes Were Submitted Successfully?

After we submit your return, you’ll receive a confirmation notice showing that the CRA has accepted your return. We’ll also provide you with a digital copy of your filed return and let you know if the CRA has any questions about your concern. This transparency ensures you're not left wondering if your taxes actually went through.

When Can You Expect Your CRA Tax Refund?

If you’ve signed up for direct deposit, most refunds arrive within 8 to 10 business days of CRA accepting your return. Paper cheques can take longer. If your return is selected for review, the refund may be delayed, but we’ll help you stay updated and guide you through any additional steps.

Is Online Filing More Affordable Than In-Person Tax Services?

Online filing eliminates the costs of office visits, printing, and manual paperwork. These are savings that can be passed on to you. With digital tools and faster processes, remote services also reduce labor time, making it more efficient for tax professionals to work on your return.

Additionally, online filing can save you money in ways that aren’t always obvious. There are no missed work hours for appointments, no transit or parking costs, and no need to reprint documents because something was forgotten at home. All these small savings add up and make remote filing a smart choice.

What Our Tax Accountants Need From You

Remote filing only works smoothly when we have all the necessary information from the start. As soon as you're ready to begin, we’ll walk you through our digital intake process. You’ll receive a secure upload link and a checklist outlining what’s needed. If anything is missing, our team will reach out to you directly. The more you’re able to provide, the sooner we can prepare and file your return.

To help things move quickly and accurately, please have the following items ready:

  • Your SIN and contact information
  • Your T4 and income slips
  • Your self-employment records
  • Tuition and education receipts
  • RRSP and contribution slips
  • Rental property documents
  • Investment statements and T5s
  • Receipts for medical, donations, or childcare

What if You Forget To Include a Slip or Deduction?

If you realize later that you’ve forgotten to include something, don’t panic. Once your return is submitted, we can help you file an adjustment with the CRA. Whether it’s a missed deduction, unreported income, or a forgotten slip, we’ll guide you through the correction process quickly and professionally. Filing early and fixing later is often better than filing late, especially to avoid penalties or delays.

Do You Need Special Software for Tax Document Submission?

Our remote tax filing process is designed to be as user-friendly and accessible as possible. Once you decide to move forward, we’ll inform you of the straightforward approach that will allow you to submit your documents.

Whether you’re tech-savvy or not, you won’t have a problem. We’ll guide you every step of the way to make remote tax filing simple and stress-free.
