Hi there,

I just got my PR, so filed my 2020 tax under the new SIN.
However, the RRSP limit from 2020 didn't apply, and the notice of assessment says my 2020 RRSP room was 0. This also happens to my federal and provincial education credits.
What should I do? File an appeal and wait forever, or there is a more straightforward way to let CRA know?

Thank you!

I am calling to CRA and they've been transferred me 4 times so far, 3 hours on hold....Couldn't solve any issue
I know this is a crappy answer. I would keep calling CRA until you can find someone to sort this out for you. In my experience you need to get them on the phone to solve issues like this.
