A real blast from the past, from 2007, in the earlier days of e-filing your taxes, CRA had a few issues.
Like I said this morning, you can’t e-file right now and you most likely will not be able to for quite a while. Our friends at CCRA say:
Ottawa, Ontario, March 6, 2007… Commissioner of the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) Michel Dorais today instructed some computer applications related to personal income tax filing to be temporarily halted. These applications include online services like Efile, Netfile, and My Account. Mr. Dorais said that he instructed that this preventative measure be taken following indications that CRA computer systems have run into infrastructure problems. In order to safeguard existing systems and to maintain the integrity of CRA’s taxpayer information holdings, Mr Dorais ordered tax filing processes halted.
Interesting, sounds like there was a lot of fun and games last night in the offices downtown trying to diagnose this problem.
