    If your return was Netfiled, you would have seen a confirmation number on your screen when done. If you have signed up to receive email from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), you will receive an email from them saying they will process your tax return. In order to know if it is approved or done, the CRA will send you a Notice of Assessment in your CRA My Account along with a notification to your email after they have assessed it. You should receive a Notice of Assessment (NOA) within 2 to 8 weeks. Your refund will be issued to you after they assess your return. 

     

    In this CRA link, you can Get a copy of your notice of assessment.

    I didnt netfile them because they are asking for a netfile code!

    You can NETFILE your returns without the NETFILE Access code, as it is not mandatory.

     

    If you can't use NETFILE to file your return then you will have to print and mail them to the Canada Revenue Agency. https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/corporate/contact-information/where-mail-your-paper-t1-return.html

    Me too !

    I usually get a NOA or a confirmation   

    I checked my CRA account and it's showing "" in progress "

    Never had this issue before.

    @Clau1983 If it says "In Progress" in your CRA MyAccount and it's been more than 2 weeks, you should contact the CRA. 

     

    If you are in Canada or the United States, you can call the CRA at 1-800-959-8281. If you are elsewhere, you can call 613-940-8495. This page has more ways to contact the CRA: Contact the Canada Revenue Agency
