Submit accessibility feedback
The CRA is committed to removing or addressing any physical, architectural, technological or attitudinal barriers that hinder the full and equal participation in society of persons with an impairment, including a physical, mental, intellectual, cognitive, learning, communication or sensory impairment or a functional limitation.
With this in mind, you can provide feedback on the barriers you experience when dealing with the CRA or feedback that will help inform our Accessibility Plan, all with a view of helping us make our services more accessible.
If your feedback is about a particular issue you have experienced, make sure to be descriptive and include details such as the date, the platform, and the name of the webpage, application or service involved.
Refer to the General Section of the Accessibility Plan for the CRA’s feedback process description and the designate at the CRA for feedback on accessibility.
The CRA will acknowledge and address feedback we receive on accessibility in the same manner in which it was received, unless it was received anonymously.

If you prefer to submit your feedback anonymously, you do not have to complete sections 1 or 2 of Form RC193 or include identifying information in your letter. However, please remember that we are unable to acknowledge or respond to anonymous feedback.
Facsimile (Fax)

Important: Absolutely no protected or taxpayer information should be sent by email. The security of taxpayer information is our top priority. Although email is widely used, it does not meet the security requirements needed to ensure that this confidential information is fully protected.
With this in mind, please do not include any confidential information (for example, a social insurance number or tax return information) in your feedback. We strongly recommend that you submit your feedback using another method, such as the online form (see the next section).

How we will address your feedback
On July 11, 2019, the Accessible Canada Act (ACA) came into force, making due on the government of Canada’s commitment to furthering the rights of persons with disabilities.
Promoting and advancing accessibility is about creating barrier-free communities, workplaces and services for all Canadians, especially those who have a disability.
The CRA is fully committed to proactive identification, removal and prevention of barriers for all Canadians.
Your feedback will be taken into account as part of the continuous improvement of our accessibility efforts.
Some feedback may be addressed right away, and some may be addressed in the continued development of our accessibility plan. The feedback we receive and how we take it into consideration will be included in our progress reports.
