(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 04/30/13 -- BMO Nesbitt Burns reminds Canadians that they have until midnight on Tuesday to file their personal income tax return with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).
According to a BMO Nesbitt Burns Tax Study, 94 per cent of Canadians report that they file a personal income tax return each and every year, and almost half are "Do-It-Yourselfers", preferring to prepare their own tax returns rather than relying on someone else - such as a tax professional or family/friends - to do it for them.
As of April 18, 2013, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has received and assessed more than 13.1 million tax returns, 86 per cent of which were filed electronically. Of those, almost 8.8 million returns were eligible for refunds; the CRA has issued almost $14 billion in tax refunds. The average individual tax refund has been $1,585.
