How to pay the amount you owe

You can make a payment to the CRA by visiting your Canadian bank or credit union.

Bring a remittance voucher

Bring a remittance voucher so that the payment can be applied to your CRA account correctly.

Banks and credit unions do not accept photocopies of remittance vouchers or any other type of payment form.

If you do not have one, order or print a remittance voucher or a payment form.

Pay at the teller or clerk

You can pay at a bank or credit union by:

• direct withdrawal from your bank account
• debit card
• cheque or money order

If you are paying from an institution outside of Canada and the United States, you may need to pay by wire transfer.

Paying customs debt, student loans, or amounts to other government areas

The CRA may contact you about a debt you owe to another government area. We do not accept payments directly for these types of debt.
