• Registered RepID: Official representation is conducted via a registered Representative Identifier (RepID), providing the authority to correspond directly with the CRA on behalf of the client.

• Client-Controlled Access: Transparency is a priority; the taxpayer retains absolute authority over the RepID relationship. Authorization is client-initiated and can be monitored or revoked at any time through the CRA My Account portal.

• Notice of Assessment Review: If ordered, the post-filing support includes a thorough review of the CRA Notice of Assessment to ensure all submitted data was processed correctly.
