About GST/HST TELEFILE

Qualifying registrants can use this service to file their GST/HST returns in a matter of minutes using their touch-tone telephone and a toll-free number. GST/HST TELEFILE is a fast, free, and easy-to-use filing option that reduces processing time, eliminates the need to mail paper returns, and speeds up refunds.

How does it work?

Using GST/HST TELEFILE is as easy as making a 1-800 phone call. Qualifying businesses simply have to prepare a GST/HST return and call the toll-free telephone number. An automated telephone process will prompt registrants to give their tax information using their telephone keypad.

Once the data has been entered, registrants will be asked to confirm that they want to file the information they entered as their return. Registrants will immediately get a confirmation number and their return will start being processed.

What are the advantages of using GST/HST TELEFILE?

• It's fast, easy, and secure.
• You get immediate confirmation that we have received your return.
• It's available seven days a week.
• You get faster refunds (consider combining GST/HST TELEFILE with direct deposit).

Who can use it?

GST/HST TELEFILE is available to GST/HST registrants across Canada, with the exception of Quebec. For more information on whether you are eligible to use this service, see eligibility.
