Some Canadians have not received their entitled tax credit payments due to a “technical issue,” according to the Canada Revenue Agency.

The CRA said the issue is affecting payouts of the GST/HST credit and the Ontario Trillium Benefit to some taxpayers. The agency said in a statement to Global News on Monday that it expects fewer than two per cent of GST/HST credit and OTB payments have been affected.

The CRA first signalled issues with the payouts in a pair of tweets on April 6. Read more: CRA ‘confident’ a compromise is possible as tax season strike fears grow The agency told Global News in a statement Friday it was aware of the issue and that updates would be posted on its website.

In a series of followup tweets on Sunday, the CRA said those experiencing delays who are signed up for direct deposit through their tax account will start getting payments as early as April 14, while taxpayers who receive benefits via cheque will start receiving them in the mail the following week.https://twitter.com/CanRevAgency/status/1645185565741002758?s=20 “We are in solution mode and are currently working around the clock to issue the payments as quickly as possible to affected Canadians,” read the tweets, with an apology to taxpayers affected by the issue.

Canada Revenue Agency won’t extend tax deadline if workers strike
Canada Revenue Agency says it will not extend the deadline to file taxes even if thousands of its workers go on strike amid an ongoing labour dispute.“There are no plans to extend the T1 tax filing deadlines, as a potential strike in no way impedes the ability of Canadians to file their taxes electronically or on paper,” an agency spokesperson told Global News in an email Thursday.“Canadians should take steps to ensure their return is filed by May 1, 2023, along with payment for any balance owing.” Read more: Tax delays, passport backlogs: How you’ll be impacted if public servants strike As of Friday, more than 35,000 agency workers, represented by the Union of Taxation Employees (UTE) and the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC), were in a legal position to strike after voting ended last week.That’s in addition to the 122,000 other Public Service Alliance of Canada federal workers who entered a strike position as of Wednesday.The labour dispute over contracts, wages and remote work comes as the May 1 deadline to file income tax and benefit returns for 2022 is approaching.In the event of a strike, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has warned some services may be delayed or unavailable.Specifically, the CRA anticipates there may be delays in processing some income tax and benefit returns, particularly those filed by paper, and increased wait times in contact centres.Even if there is a labour disruption, the agency says on its website that benefit payments will be prioritized and the child benefit will continue.As negotiations continue, CRA is encouraging Canadians to file their taxes “as soon as possible, not only this year but every year.” Read more: CRA ‘confident’ a compromise is possible as tax season strike

FAA warns of safety hazard from leaky faucets in Boeing 787, calls for inspections
FILE - A Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner test plane is presented on the Tarmac of Le Bourget on June 18, 2017, on the eve of the opening of the International Paris Air Show. (Photo credit: ERIC PIERMONT/AFP via Getty Images) The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is calling for inspections of all Boeing 787 jets amid recurring problems with leaky bathroom faucets that regulators worry could harm the massive airliner’s electronic systems.The FAA on Friday issued a proposal for repetitive inspections of Boeing 787 jetliners, which the company calls the Dreamliner, in the wake of "multiple" cases of water leaking from lavatories under the cabin floor and into bays where electronic equipment is stored.In calling for the inspections, the FAA said the leaks threatened to damage critical electronic equipment that could potentially lead to a "loss of continued safe flight and landing."BOEING PLANS TO INCREASE 737 MAX PRODUCTION RATES ‘VERY SOON’The agency indicated that after one unidentified airline discovered wet carpet in the plane’s cockpit and inspected the rest of its 787 fleet it found "multiple" planes with leaking faucets.Boeing notified airlines about the issue in November, which it traced back to a problem with an O-ring seal that led to a slow leak of about 8 ounces of water per hour.The aircraft manufacturer said it believes the issue is limited to certain 787s, although the FAA’s proposed order would apply to all 787 jetliners in U.S.
