Back to Canada without meeting RO, what to do with taxes?

[nicklove128]

Hi everyone, I didn’t meet the RO yet I was lucky to enter canada in early 2019.

When I filed my 2019 taxes my agent told me I have to inform the CRA about the years that I didn’t file taxes because I was outside of canada. I called CRA and was told that I need to fax them info including my new migration and immigration date.

My questions are:
1. Should I fax it now or wait until I have stayed 2 years here?
2. Will CRA report my case to the immigration office?
3. If I don’t fax it now, will I have problems with CRA? Thank you very much!

1. Do it now. Don't wait 2 years.
2. No, they will not do that. You are fine.
3. If CRA has asked you for something, you should do it asap. Yes, you could have problems (related to your tax filings) if you ignore CRA instructions.
