Once you have completed your return, you can file it directly with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) using NETFILE, and save a PDF copy for your personal records — all from within the StudioTax mobile app.

Before you file

• Review your return carefully and make sure all income, deductions, and credits have been entered correctly.
• Ensure your personal information (SIN, date of birth, address) matches what the CRA has on file.
• Check that you have no outstanding errors or warnings flagged by the app.

How to NETFILE from the app

1. Tap the File button from the main menu or the top toolbar.
2. Follow the NETFILE wizard — read the instructions on each screen carefully.
3. Accept the terms and conditions by ticking the checkbox when prompted.
4. Tap Transmit to send your return to the CRA.
5. Once transmission is complete, you will receive a confirmation number — keep this for your records as proof that your return was accepted.

Save a PDF for your records

After filing, you can generate a PDF copy of your complete return directly from the app. This is useful for your personal records or if the CRA ever requests a copy.

1. Go to your completed return.
2. Tap the Save as PDF option from the menu.
3. Choose where to save or share the file on your device.
