Hi Guys , I hope you would help me with this problem .
I landed in Canada on a work permit in April 2012, accompanied by my wife and son ( both on Visitor permit). My wife, obviously, is not working and has no income. I filed my income tax returns online through H and R block as follows -
for 2012 - only my ITR was filed
for 2013 - both me and my wife`s ITR was filed by H&R ( even though she has no income)
I do not know why H&R block did not file her ITR in 2012 or even why they filed it in 2013 ( both year there were obviously different persons filing it)
Now , since its been more than 18 months in Canada , i was filing for CCTB benefits and they asked that i file my wifes ITR for 2012 (even though she has no income - as she is the primary care giver and she ll get the CCTB money in her account). As she is on a visitor permit , she does not have a SIN number ,
Can someone tell me how can i file her ITR for 2012 ( her income was nil) without SIN number ? and whether i can do it online or have to do it by mail ?
I ll appreciate everyone`s help .
