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. What's Actually Happening When you need to change something on a tax return you've already filed — say you forgot a slip, need to update a deduction, or want to claim a credit you missed — you submit what's called a T1 adjustment request. The CRA sorts these into two speeds: Routine requests (filed online through your CRA My Account or certified tax software) have a service standard of just 2 weeks .

Hamas Endorses Trump Plan as Islamic Jihad Joins In, Raising Hopes for Hostage Release

 

Hamas terrorists stand in formation ahead of a ceremony to hand over Israeli hostages to the Red Cross in Nuseirat, central Gaza Strip, February 22, 2025. 


A potential breakthrough emerged in the Gaza conflict after Hamas announced its acceptance of key elements of U.S. President Donald Trump’s peace plan, including provisions for ending the war, Israel’s withdrawal, and the exchange of hostages and prisoners.

The move gained further momentum when Palestinian Islamic Jihad, a smaller but more hardline faction that also holds hostages, publicly endorsed Hamas’s stance. Their alignment has fueled cautious optimism that the long-stalled release of Israeli captives could finally move forward.

World leaders quickly welcomed the development, urging both sides to seize the opportunity for a ceasefire in what has become the deadliest conflict involving Israel since its founding in 1948. For many Palestinians, the joint response offered a rare “ray of hope” after years of failed ceasefire attempts and devastating humanitarian crises in Gaza.

Still, uncertainty lingers. Some Palestinians voiced concern that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government could resist or derail the plan, while questions remain over whether Hamas will agree to disarm—one of Israel’s central demands.

Despite these challenges, the unified backing of Hamas and Islamic Jihad marks a significant shift in the dynamics of the conflict, raising hopes that a path toward peace and the release of hostages may finally be within reach.
