DIY vs. Accountant: Should You File Your Own Canadian Tax Return?

As tax season approaches, a question that I get often is whether you should do your own taxes or outsource them to a tax preparer or accountant. My answer, perhaps unsurprisingly, is that it depends. The first and perhaps most important factor is to determine the level of complexity you are dealing with. If your situation is simple e.g. you have a T4 slip from your employer, RRSPs and a couple of donations, it is quite easy to do it yourself especially using tax software which guides you through the process. However, if you have sold a principal residence or rental property, or have an active investment portfolio or another arcane tax event , and you are unsure of how to deal with this, it might make more sense to outsource so that you are not doubting whether you have done it correctly.
