Do i need to mail my t4 to the cra

In Canada, the T4 slip is typically issued by your employer and is used to report your employment income and deductions to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). You don't need to mail your T4 slip to the CRA, as your employer is required to submit it to the CRA on your behalf.

Here's what you need to do:

  1. Check your T4 slip: Review your T4 slip to ensure it's accurate and complete. If you notice any errors, contact your employer to correct them.
  2. Keep a copy: Keep a copy of your T4 slip for your records. You may need to provide it to the CRA or your financial institution if you're filing a tax return.
  3. Your employer submits it: Your employer will submit your T4 slip to the CRA by the deadline, which is usually February 28th of each year for the previous calendar year.

The CRA will use the information from your T4 slip to process your tax return and calculate your taxes owed or refund due. You'll receive a Notice of Assessment from the CRA, which will show your tax liability or refund.

So, to summarize: you don't need to mail your T4 slip to the CRA. Your employer will take care of submitting it on your behalf.
