Where to Mail Your Canadian Tax Return

TL;DR: Mailing your Canadian tax return? The appropriate location to send your return will depend on your province or territory of residence. For faster processing, consider the e-filing option through the CRA's online system.

In our increasingly digital world, many Canadians choose to file their taxes electronically via the Canada Revenue Agency’s (CRA) online filing system. However, if you prefer the paper route, you might be wondering where to mail your tax return.

The CRA has different tax centres for different provinces and territories. Where you live determines the address to which you mail your return. It’s crucial to send your tax return to the correct tax centre to prevent any delays in processing.

For instance, if you reside in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Yukon, Northwest Territories, or Nunavut, your return should be mailed to the following address:

Winnipeg Tax Centre

Post Office Box 14001, Station Main

Winnipeg MB R3C 3M3

For residents of Ontario, Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, or Nunavut, mail your return to:

Sudbury Tax Centre

Post Office Box 20000, Station A

Sudbury ON P3A 5C1

To get the accurate mailing address specific to your province or territory, visit the CRA website.

Remember, if you are expecting a refund, the CRA typically processes paper returns in four to six weeks. But with electronic filing, your refund could arrive in as little as eight business days.
