The CRA loves it when people use ‘off the shelf’ software’ to prepare their Personal Tax because people make mistakes. The average person does not know what they can and cannot claim and although the software may walk you through an interview process, it does not KNOW YOU.
There is nothing difficult about preparing a personal income tax return right?
Just go to the store, buy a program and away you go. It’s easy.
The software is 100% guaranteed right?
Yes it is. It is guaranteed to do exactly what you tell it to do. But what if you do not know what you can claim as tax deductions or tax credits?
Does the software know that you are now the caregiver for your elderly parents?
Does the software know that you had a new addition to the family this year?
How about those medical expenses and the kids after-school activities, can you claim them?
How much? Which receipts do you need to keep? How Long?

For some, it is their greatest fear, for others, a fact of life. The letter from CRA saying they want to review your tax returns.
There are only 2 ways that a taxpayer can be selected for an audit:
We’ll ignore random chance and give you the details for the Targeted Selection Process (TSP).
The TSP is based upon risk factors; the CRA looks for those that are more likely to owe more taxes based upon some specific criteria and experience:
10% of randomly selected taxpayers face an additional tax bill of more than $5,000 while 35% of TSP taxpayers owe more than $5,000 in additional taxes.
Filing online vs. paper filing has absolutely no bearing on being selected for an audit.
