To import this year’s tax info from the CRA, you’ll be prompted to sign in with your CRA My Account. Make sure you have your login info handy.
TurboTax works like an interview: We ask you questions about your life that affect your tax situation (i.e. Are you married? Do you have kids?) and fill in all the right tax forms.
Our team of tax experts keeps our products up-to-date with the latest tax laws, so we know exactly what to ask. Your answers tell us which deductions and credits to look for, and what to ask next, so that we can find every dollar you deserve.
For example, if you tell us you have children, we'll help you claim child care expenses as a deduction. And if you're ever unsure about how to answer a question, we're here to help.
You can connect with a product specialist and get help with how to use our software.

Audit Coach means that in case of an audit, a tax expert will go over your review letter from the CRA or Revenu Québec, advise you on how to respond, and answer questions related to ReFILE.
Audit Coach is information only. We will not provide legal advice or represent you before the CRA or Revenu Québec, or prepare or review your response to the CRA or Revenu Québec.
Both services are available until December 2027.
