CRA Tax Adjustment Delays Now Stretch Up to 47 Weeks — Here's How to Avoid Getting Stuck

   July 12, 2026   If you've ever filed a request to correct or update your tax return and then waited... and waited... you're not imagining it. Canada's Taxpayers' Ombudsperson has confirmed that some Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) adjustment requests are now taking nearly a year to process — and it's launched a formal investigation into why.

High-Tech Drone Detection System Deployed in New York Amid Mystery Sightings

 

In response to a series of mysterious drone sightings across the East Coast, U.S. officials have deployed a state-of-the-art drone detection system to New York. Governor Kathy Hochul announced the deployment after drone sightings forced the temporary shutdown of runways at Stewart International Airport last week.

The system, which utilizes advanced 360-degree radar technology, aims to enhance the ability of state and federal law enforcement to monitor and address unauthorized drone activities. The sightings have not only been reported in New York but also in neighboring states such as New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Connecticut.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas assured the public that the drones do not pose a national security threat and that the federal government is working closely with state and local authorities to manage the situation. Despite the reassurances, the uptick in drone sightings has raised concerns among residents and prompted calls for more robust measures to address the issue.

Senator Chuck Schumer has urged Congress to pass legislation that would grant local enforcement more power to investigate and counteract drone activities. Meanwhile, New Jersey Senator Andy Kim has been actively engaging with local communities to gather more information about the sightings.

As the investigation continues, authorities remain committed to ensuring the safety and security of the affected regions.
