Tax required /paid

[itsmyid]

does anyone understand why there is an option for ‘tax required’?

Isn’t that always required to file whether you are temp worker/student or PR?

Is there anything more about this section?

If you filed taxes, it doesn't matter if you were required to do so or not. All they care about is that you did it.

I understand that too, that’s why I found this part really confusing and unnecessary ...

It's just CIC being silly. They should have it such that the first box is "Filed Yes/No", and if you pick Yes, the box for "Required to File Yes/No" would disappear. They CAN do that but they don't...because why make things straightforward lol

If you filed taxes, just check 'yes' to required to file.

What is the assessment date on the tax return? I remember filing every year before time but the assesment date is after April 30th.
