Notice of assessment
The notice of assessment (NOA) gives you a summary of your tax and benefit assessment and explains any changes made to your return. It also tells you if you have a refund, a zero balance or a balance owing.
It gives you other important information such as your:
-
unused registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) contributions
-
RRSP deduction limit and available contribution room
-
first home savings account (FHSA) participation room
-
Canada training credit limit (CTCL)
-
other amounts and balances that you may want to carry forward to a future year
You can view your NOA in NETFILE- or EFILE-certified tax software and My Account right after the CRA receives and processes your return. For more information, go to canada.ca/cra-notices-letters.
