After sending in a return

When the CRA receives your return, it will process your payment (if attached) and send you a notice of assessment of your return.

If your payment is not attached, the CRA will assess the amount owing and advise you using one of the following methods:

• If you registered for email notification service, you will receive an email notification that there is mail for you to view in My Business Account
• You will receive a notice of assessment by mail

If you filed a nil return, you will not receive a notice of assessment.

If you have an amount owing

If there is an amount owing and you have registered for email notification service, you will receive an email notification that there is mail for you to view in My Business Account. If you receive a notice of assessment, you will also receive Form RC159, Amount Owing Remittance Voucher.

Use this form to pay any outstanding amount. Form RC159 is not available on the CRA's website; it is only provided in a pre-printed format. To order this personalized form, go to My Business Account, or Represent a Client.
