Reader Questions
Why did the CRA reassess your tax return? What should you do about it?
Who reviews tax returns at the CRA? In 2025, when I submitted my tax return, I was assessed and received a refund of $80. Then in January 2026, I received an email from CRA. I logged into My Account and was told my 2025 return had been reassessed and that I actually owe CRA $1,138.39. Is this possible? Should I ask them to review it a third time?

How can I reduce costs on a limited pension?
I’m not financially able to live on my $2,000 per month pension. My rent is $1,375 per month, and I have a $68 storage unit cost, plus my phone bill is $60 per month. I’m left with little money for food and other necessities like laundry and cleaning materials. I would appreciate it if you can help me with whatever you can.
