User reviews
I don't know what everyone is talking about this being a run-around. I added the app to Chrome (running Windows 7) and it installed just about as fast as I clicked the button to install. From there I launched the app, uploaded my .ws tax file, and agreed to CRA's terms and pressed submit. I was uploaded and done my Netfile submission in less than 30 seconds. This was great!
The only thing I can think is maybe some people are missing the instruction in Tax Freeway that you have to save your tax file as a *.ws file format and not a *.tax file format. It is all written out fairly clearly though. Not sure what others are doing differently.
It was totally awful. Like Ron before me a total RUN AROUND and soooo
frustrating and caused much stress.
Using XP and getting no results but much run around
