Tax agency puts online services back online after Internet threat detected
OTTAWA — Canadians can file their tax returns online again after the Canada Revenue Agency took the service down as a precautionary measure on Friday.
Services returned to normal late Sunday.
A notice was posted on the agency’s website through the weekend that officials detected “an Internet vulnerability” and took down many of its services, including electronic tax filing.
The services affected included “My Account,” “My Business Account,” “Netfile,” “EFILE” and “Auto-Fill My Return.”
