Businesses, are you ready for your CRA mail to go online?

Starting May 12, 2025, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will transition to online mail as the default method of delivering most business correspondence. This means you’ll start receiving most of your business notices and other correspondence through CRA’s secure online portal, My Business Account, instead of by mail.

This change applies to:
– All new business number and program account registrations
– All existing businesses registered for My Business Account and
– All businesses who have given online access to a representative to view and/or modify information on their behalf via Represent a Client

This change is part of the CRA’s ongoing efforts to improve service delivery by making it faster, easier, and more secure for businesses to manage their tax obligations online. Going digital means businesses will need to sign in to My Business Account to receive important pieces of correspondence, such as notices of assessment. For more information go to Online mail for business.
