In order to file your taxes electronically, you should use a CRA NETFILE certified tax preparation software , such as TaxTron.

TaxTron is free to use for up to 20 tax returns for the year. When you are ready to submit your tax forms to NETFILE you can then purchase the license you’ll need to print your tax forms or to submit it to NETFILE.
