Software for GST/HST Internet File Transfer

We certify some existing third-party accounting software packages that allow you to create, upload and file your return using our GST/HST Internet File Transfer service.

How it works

GST/HST Internet File Transfer has been designed to accept a specific file format (.tax extension), and the CRA-certified software will include instructions on how to save your return in that format.

Certified software

Certified tax preparation software means that the developer of the software package has gone through a process with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) to establish that the particular package is compatible with the CRA systems. This does not mean that we endorse software products on this list, or recommend any one product over any other.

The following table contains the list of software certified for use with GST/HST Internet File Transfer. We will update this list as new software products are certified.
