Turbotax: Non-resident Netfile Error
Non-residents can now use EFILE and NETFILE to submit their 2024 income tax and benefit returns
The CRA is constantly improving its services to help Canadians file their income tax and benefit returns. By doing so, taxpayers are able to get any refunds, and benefit and credit payments they may be entitled to. This tax season, the CRA is making tax-filing easier and faster for non-residents.
Effective February 2025, EFILE restrictions have been lifted for deemed residents of Canada. This means that these non-residents will be able to file their individual income tax and benefit returns for 2024 and subsequent tax years through EFILE, subject to some exclusions.
Also effective February 2025, NETFILE restrictions have been lifted for emigrant taxpayers. Individual income tax and benefit returns for the 2024 tax year will be the first year accepted through NETFILE for emigrants. Together with the changes made on March 28, 2024, emigrants can now use EFILE or NETFILE to submit their returns.
You must file a Canadian income tax return if you:
- have to pay tax
- want to claim a refund
For more information, see Who has to file a return
When completing your tax return:
- You may be entitled to claim certain deductions or credits
- Do not include income that has had Part XIII tax deducted, unless you elect to file.." (Non-residents of Canada - Canada.ca)
