You can officially start filing your 2021 taxes on February 20, 2023. This day is also the earliest date that you can file taxes for previous years.
The deadline for most Canadians to file their taxes is May 1, 2023. Usually the deadline is on April 30, but since it falls on a weekend, this deadline has been pushed to the first business day of the following week. If you are self-employed or have a partner or spouse who is self-employed, your deadline is June 15.
So far, in 2023, no extended deadlines have been issued, meaning the filing deadlines aren’t likely to change if you have a good idea and plan on filing your return and pay any tax balance owed by that date.
