Leave your cash at home

Did you know…

Less than one half of one per cent of all payments made to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) are made in cash. The CRA prefers that if you are making a payment in person at one of its counters, you use a cheque, debit card or money order.

You can save time by paying your personal and/or business tax through your financial institution's telephone and Internet banking services. It's secure, private, convenient, and you don't have to wait in line or find a parking spot! Depending on the institution you deal with, you may even be able to future-date your payments.

To find out more about these services, visit www.cra.gc.ca/electronicpayments, or contact your financial institution.
