Eligibility

You can use GST/HST TELEFILE to file your return if:

  • a four-digit access code is printed on the working copy of your personalized return;
  • the return you are filing results in a nil balance, an amount owing, or a refund of $10,000 or less;
  • your return does not include an amount on line 111; and
  • you do not need to file a rebate application form with your return.

If you are filing a return with an amount on line 111, or you have to file a rebate application form with your return, you cannot use GST/HST TELEFILE. In either situation, file your return on paper along with the rebate application form.

Access code

An access code will be pre-printed on your return if your account:

  • has a one-year filing history with CRA;
  • is not a joint filer;
  • is not administered by the Ministère du Revenue du Québec; and,
  • is not in bankruptcy proceedings.

Returns with an amount owing

As of October 22, 2007, GST/HST TELEFILE can be used to file returns with an amount owing.

If you file your return using GST/HST TELEFILE, use your financial institution's Internet or telephone banking service or form RC158, GST/HST Netfile/Telefile Remittance Voucher, to make your payment. Do not send us a paper copy of your return.
