Yes, you can do it! Tax software makes it easy to prepare and file your own tax return. And here's something that no one wants to tell you—for many Canadians, all your tax preparer is doing is using their own software, running the CRA's Auto-fill My Return, and pressing submit.

We recommend you get set up with a CRA Account before starting. For many people, you simply enter some personal information, run Auto-fill My Return, do a quick review to ensure you've captured all your income and deductions, and file your return. If you get stuck, we're here to help.
