How to submit your complaint

Delays — Processing incoming complaints and examinations

We are experiencing delays processing complaints and are currently working on the ones received for the week of April 28 to May 2, 2025. There is also a 120 day delay in assigning cases needing an examination.

If waiting for the CRA's Service Feedback Program to address your complaint will cause you undue hardship, submit a complaint below.

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience.


If you are not satisfied with the quality of the service you received from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), there are steps you can follow to resolve your complaint. Answer the questions below so we can direct you on how to address your issue(s).
