So here's the thing,
I landed as a PR(with spouse) in September 2019 and due to some personal issues I've been tied up and haven't had a chance to look at my tax obligations or benefits eligibility till now.
Now I just started work on filing my 2019 tax returns and reached this link after doing some research on GST/HST credit.
This is a direct quote from the following link: As soon as you get your social insurance number, apply for benefits.
https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/tax/international-non-residents/individuals-leaving-entering-canada-non-residents/newcomers-canada-immigrants.html#tbc
I'm just trying to understand, am I in some kind of trouble already because I did not fill up this form right away and I'm just getting to filling it almost 7 months after landing?
If this is a stupid (or repeated) question, please forgive me. These are difficult times for everyone and I hope you can find the compassion to simply point me to the correct thread and not berate me for it.
Thanks
