My husband just called them to see how long they think it'll take and they said for first time returns it'll take 16 weeks!

Re: Tax Returns - Canada
I'm getting the impression from the news they've got some new anti-fraud measures which are delaying things, I think I'll call them and find out.
Or possibly it's the wonderful new Schedule 1A that is making things worse. Or both.

Re: Tax Returns - Canada
So they've assessed my return. I filed as an emigrant having left at end of September, obviously pro-rating my personal allowance to match the number of days I was in Canada for 2014.
Question is, why would they adjust my personal allowance to be the full year allowance rather than pro-rated in my notice of assessment after already providing the necessary info regarding leaving dates?! I mean the extra money in my refund is great but surely this can't be right?!

I worked from the end of September, so only the last 1/4 of the year. I assumed that as I didn't hit the tax free allowance for the year that I would get all my tax back, but they pro-rata'ed it and I'm only getting back about 20% of what I thought I would get back. (and what Studiotax thought too)
