Where do I find the mail-in version of my tax return (PDF)?

If you’ve decided to mail-in a copy of your return instead of filing it electronically using NETFILE, your first step will be to download a PDF copy of your return. You’ll then be able to print it and send it to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and/or Revenu Québec. To do this:

  1. Click the FILE tab in H&R Block’s 2021 tax software.

  2. Select By Mail as your method of submission.

  3. Click the Mail-in Version button next to the return you want to download.



  4. When the warning dialog opens, click Continue, I Don’t Want to NETFILE this Return.

  5. A PDF copy of your return will automatically download to your computer.

  6. Repeat steps 3 to 5 if you have a Québec return, T1135 form, or a ReFile return (T1-Adj form) to download.

Note: If you want to download your return again, simply click the Download again link under the Mail-in Version button next to the return you want to download.

If you’re using a PC, you can open the PDF by clicking the download icon that appears at the bottom of your screen.
