NETFILE - How long does it take to get my refund?UFile is not a government body. We are a tax preparation software company that provides you with the tools to file your return without using the old pencil-and-paper method.
After you have completed your return, you have a choice to transmit via NETFILE or print and mail your return. If you have transmitted your return by NETFILE, all your data is sent to the CRA and /or the Revenu Quebec and you will receive a confirmation number from the CRA and the Revenu Quebec websites. It can take 2 to 3 weeks to receive a refund when you transmit your return via NETFILE. For mailed returns, refunds are mailed out in 4 to 6 weeks following receipt of the return by the CRA or the Revenu Quebec. If you haven't filed in your return yet, you must do so by choosing the option that suits your needs best.
To find out more about NETFILE, please contact the CRA, by calling their toll-free Help Desk: 1-800-714-7257.
You can verify the status of your refund on the CRA and Revenu Quebec websites:
