Common reporting errors
Three of our review programs are:
- Pre-assessment Review Program
- Processing Review Program
- Matching Program
Under these programs, we review various income, deduction, and credit amounts on individual income tax returns to ensure they have been correctly reported. Because these programs are often based on the information obtained from information returns, it is essential for filers of these returns to properly fill out their returns in order that we can ensure the accuracy of the (re) assessments generated by the programs.
Select one of the following most common reporting errors.

What you can do to avoid this type of error - Multiple records
When you need to send us more than one record - Inclusion of RRIF contributions
RRIF contributions should not be included in the RRSP contribution information return - When the receipt is not required
When you do not have to issue a receipt - Amending, cancelling, adding, or replacing slips
