Why doesn't the government just do our taxes for us?

>> No.9217321

Cause they have more important things to do like import foreigners

>> No.9217322

unironically, they do.
they know all the obvious info you're submitting, you're just verifying it and adding the less obvious parts to stay honest

>> No.9217335

>>9217292
They do it on their side too.

>> No.9217353

>>9217292
Because then they can't fine you for submitting late.

I noticed a new convenience feature some online tax sites have setup with Canada Revenue this year. You can now pull all the information the government has about you for the filing year and automatically insert it in to your return. The information isn't complete and does require manual tweaking but it did save me a lot of time filling out all my stock trades from 2017.
