EFILE is the system used by the Canada Revenue Agency as a means for electronically transmitting tax returns. It became a national program in 1993. EFILE is only available to professional tax preparers and is not to be confused with the publicly available NETFILE. EFILE is a form of Electronic Data Interchange.

- Software meeting CRA certification standards, such as Intuit's Profile[1] or Microsophic Inc.'s Visual Tax.[2]
- Must be a professional to qualify, along with passing the CRA screening of new applicants.
Advantages

- Returns are processed much faster than conventional paper filing.
- Reduces usage of paper, saves money and is environmentally friendly.
- More reliable since you can retain paper slips, and no chance of getting return lost in mail.
