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 .

NY Attorney General Letitia James Indicted on Bank Fraud Charges Amid Political Firestorm

                                            New York AG Letitia James indicted in Virginia.  


New York Attorney General Letitia James, a prominent Democrat and longtime critic of President Donald Trump, has been indicted by a federal grand jury in Virginia on charges of bank fraud and making false statements to a financial institution.

The indictment stems from allegations that James misrepresented details on mortgage loan applications, securing more favorable terms than she was entitled to. If convicted, she faces up to 30 years in prison per count, along with significant fines.

James has strongly denied wrongdoing, calling the charges “baseless” and accusing the Trump administration of weaponizing the Justice Department for political retribution. She vowed to continue serving as New York’s top law enforcement official and to fight the case aggressively.

The indictment has sparked sharp partisan reactions. Supporters of James argue the prosecution is politically motivated, pointing to her successful civil fraud case against Trump and his business empire in 2022. Critics, however, say the charges highlight serious breaches of public trust.

James is scheduled to make her first court appearance later this month in Norfolk, Virginia.
