When you file your return online, you get a confirmation message containing a reference number. Make sure you get one after filing.
When can I file my income tax return using NetFile Québec?
2025 income tax return
You can file your 2025 income tax return as of February 23, 2026.
Returns from previous years
You can file your original 2022, 2023 and 2024 income tax returns in the four-year period following the taxation year covered by the return, except during scheduled system closures (such as the one scheduled from January 31 to February 22, 2026).
Amended income tax returns
You can file an amended 2022, 2023, 2024 or 2025 income tax return as of February 23, 2026.
For an income tax return for a year prior to 2022, the request for an adjustment must be made using form TP-1.R-V, Request for an Adjustment to an Income Tax Return, which you must send by mail.
Returns being processed
If the income tax return that you want to adjust is being processed, you cannot request an adjustment online. Instead, you must:
- wait until your return has been processed and then use our online services or authorized software or
- complete form TP-1.R-V and mail it to us
Having your return filed by an accredited person
You can have an accredited person prepare and file your return.
Before having an accredited person file your return online, you must complete and sign two copies of the authorization form (TP-1000.TE-V, Online Filing of an Income Tax Return by an Accredited Person). You and the accredited person must each keep a copy of the form for a period of six years from the date the tax return was filed. Do not send us a copy unless we ask for it.
Downloading tax data
If you complete your income tax return online using authorized software, you can use the Tax Data Download service. This service auto-fills certain sections of the income tax return, specifically:
- your employment, retirement and investment income
- your benefits and indemnities
- your instalment payments
- interest paid by Revenu Québec
To download your tax data, you'll need your:
- notice of assessment number

Return filed by a professional representative
If a professional representative files your income tax return, they can download some of your tax slips and data using authorized software. To do so, they'll need a valid power of attorney or your download code.
Note that your professional representative cannot get this code for you. Only you can get one by:
- using My Account for individuals
