They do not and they cannot legally derive your living address from your employer. The CRA does not have the powers of the IRS, you have to voluntarily tell them:
your address
your phone number
your bank account info, with consent to deposit
They will happily send mail to your last known address for years.
So once again, I’m asking how this will help the marginalized and vulnerable people this move purports to help, if their not being fully “in the system” is reason they don’t get benefits. More than half of the people my wife works with (the vulnerable and marginalized) do not file cra income tax.
This the same thing as someone else here described, where dental care for sub-poverty folks cannot use the system if they haven’t filed taxes the previous year. The overlap of ppl who need dental care and who haven’t filed taxes in years is high.
