The mailing address and fax line are dedicated to receiving information on suspected cases of tax or benefit cheating. Any information received at our National Leads Centre that isn’t clearly addressed or meant for the National Leads Centre or the Leads Program will not be redirected to another CRA program due to the sensitive nature of the correspondence we receive.
