You guys got so much refund! So Good! I have claimed twice but I never got a refund. My employer always needs to pay more tax after the calculation. I just want to know how can you get the refund if your employer didn't pay more tax than needed. I am married, no kids, my husband stays at home country.

Thanks for the vote of confidence but I am not an expert :) Am like anybody else offering suggestions that worked for me or somebody else i have met/known in the duration of my stay in Canada. Workers get refunds when tax/cpp/ei deductions were more than what should be paid the government, that is why it is called a refund. You're getting back what you paid in excess of what's required. It's the same anywhere you are in the world.

job_seeker is right and there are also considerations of other kinds of deductions such as number of dependents, spouse's income, etc. It's not a "one size fits all" kind of thing.
