I do not really trust the e-filing of Income Tax to CRA, I do my own via Turbo Tax & forward it via snail mail with EVERYTHING that they might ask for....leave nothing out. I also have an "ACCOUNT" with CRA & regularly check especially during the months when an reassessment might occur like November & December. This way in case I forgot or mislaid a "T" slip I can act quickly as you only get about a month to respond. Anyone out of Canada longer than a month or two should get an Account with CRA, it's easy & than you have your chance to act quickly if any problem shows up.....just my suggestion on that issue..oh & if you are e-banking have CRA as a Canadian Payee on your list, that way you can forward money if needed quickly & securely.
Of course I don't like them but "Death & Taxes" thing.....
