Pete M 0 Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 I need to refile my 2017 return, but I do not see the option under Netfile tab. The original return was successfully sent and I have a confirmation number and NOA. I am using UFile 2017 ver 21.21 Ser/:022111 Is this option not available for 2017? How do I refile using Ufile 2017? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ishmael 0 Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 I have the exact same problem, also for 2017. Ufile claims that ReFile is available for 2016 and later years, but I only find the ReFile link in my 2018 and 2019 returns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheTaxSmith 15 Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 Hello Ishmael. Currently the Efile, Netfile and Refile with CRA is closed and will reopen on 22 February, 2021. Take a look at the following link: https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/e-services/e-services-businesses/efile-electronic-filers/efile-news-program-updates.html When the CRA system reopens you should be able to Refile your 2017 return as per the following link: https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/e-services/e-services-businesses/refile-online-t1-adjustments-efile-service-providers.html Look at the conditions for Refile. Perhaps your situation is excluded. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ishmael 0 Posted February 11 Report Share Posted February 11 Ufile Technical Support told me over email that "The ReFile service is available only for the 2018-2019 tax returns." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheTaxSmith 15 Posted February 11 Report Share Posted February 11 Overview ReFILE is an online service that lets individuals and EFILE service providers send online adjustments for income tax and benefit returns with certified NETFILE software and EFILE software. Individuals (NETFILE users) can use ReFILE to send adjustments for 2020, 2019, 2018 and 2017 returns. EFILE service providers can send adjustments for 2020, 2019, 2018, and 2017 returns. If you have questions about the functionality available in your software package, please contact your software provider. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheTaxSmith 15 Posted February 11 Report Share Posted February 11 Hi Ishmael. Not sure about the response from Technical Support. I suspect there is an issue with the date that CRA opens up service. Have seen this situation for many years. You should revisit the refile option after 22 February 2021. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MJS 0 Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 Hello, today is Mar 17, 2021 and I still can't find the ReFile option linked to my 2017 returns.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thetut 87 Posted March 17 Report Share Posted March 17 I just checked my past years and Ufile did not offer ReFile until 2018. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
UfileUser12345 0 Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 Bumping this up in priority hopefully... I also need to use reFile for 2017 and see that is not available in my 2017 interview setup or the netfile section. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
