Did you need to get RepID in order to volunteer for a free tax clinic? As far as I understand, you only can get a RepID if you have access to your CRA's MyAccount.1) I didn't need to register for MyAccount at the CRA website when I first volunteered for the tax clinic. So not sure this is a new requirement.I didn't have any tax filed or myaccount before volunteering last year.
2) My understanding was that residents (citizens/PRs) can volunteer at the tax clinic. But I guess this is not anymore the case if you have been able to register and get verified with your student permit.
3) You need to keep in mind that CVITP volunteers are not allowed to EFILE their own personal tax returns.
I immigrated to Canada around 3 months ago and haven't filed a tax return yet, so I don't have MyAccount with CRA. I am also considering volunteering with CVITP, but I don't know how to get a RepID without access to MyAccount.
