When to expect your refund

If you filed your tax return in Canada, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will try to send you your refund within 2 weeks if you filed online, and within 8 weeks if you filed a paper return. This is only if you filed on or before the deadline.

Refunds may take up to 16 weeks if you live outside Canada and file a non-resident personal income tax return.

Sometimes, the CRA may take longer to process your return if they need to review it more carefully.

If you chose to receive your refund through direct deposit, you may get your refund faster than if you chose to receive a cheque in the mail.
