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.

Israeli forces have intensified their bombardment of eastern Gaza City, demolishing homes in neighbourhoods such as Zeitoun, Shejaia, and Tuffah, killing at least 11 people overnight.

Israel disputes these figures, while pressing ahead with plans to retake Gaza City — a move officials say could be weeks away.

The latest developments underscore the widening gap between military operations on the ground and diplomatic efforts abroad, as civilians bear the brunt of the ongoing violence.
