Hi Everyone.
I know there have been a lot of threads on this topic and I have thoroughly gone through each and every one of them, but I am still confused. I landed in Canada as a PR in Jan 2018 and my physically present days will be complete on the 29th of Jan 2020. I am planning to apply the next day. However, I am not sure how I should answer the tax filing questions. I have filed taxes for 2018 and 2019 so far, since those were the years I was in Canada. I have not been able to file for 2020 yet because I don't have the T4 slips and will not be able to do so until mid march at least. I intend to file my taxes latest by mid-march. In your expert advise, do you think I can answer the questions "Required to File" and "Filed" as follows for the past 5 years form the date of application:
Year Required to File Taxes Filed
2016 NO NO
2017 NO NO
2018 YES YES
2019 YES YES
2020 NO NO
Is the above info valid for my application or should I wait until mid-march until I file the taxes for 2020 and then apply for citizenship? Highly appreciate all the expert help and opinions, so I can make my mind.
Many thanks.
