April 14, 2025: The CRA has informed all EFILERs that if the following EFILE errors are not resolved by April 30, 2025, they intend to provide arrears interest and penalty relief for impacted individuals who file late after receiving an unresolved error code on or before their tax-filing deadline.
To qualify for relief, affected filers must have tried to EFILE their return by April 30, 2025, received the specific error code (2508, 2515, 45555, 45566, 90308, 95031, 95033) and could not resolve the error despite proper corrective action. To learn more, read the CRA update April 14, 2025 - Error codes setting incorrectly.
If you receive an error that you cannot resolve, please contact the EFILE help desk or TaxCycle support for help.
The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) is aware of a system issue that is triggering some incorrect EFILE error codes and that is preventing submission of some returns.

Due to rounding, Schedule 3 lines 17599 and 17600 add up to a total that exceeds the amount on line 68140 of form T936. The CRA has informed us that system adjustments were implemented on April 7, 2025, and are monitoring in case further adjustments are needed.
