Details

Swift Acclivity, LLC seeks to develop a prototype software application designed to assist individuals in filing their personal income tax returns in Canada. The project aims to create a user-friendly interface that guides users through the process of entering their income details and tax information for the year. The software must adhere to the latest Canadian tax rules and regulations, ensuring compliance and accuracy in calculations. By summarizing all income and taxes withheld, the application will provide users with a clear overview of their tax obligations and potential refunds. The project will focus on creating a streamlined experience that simplifies the tax filing process for Canadian residents, leveraging classroom knowledge of software development and tax regulations. It should also have the ability to submit the tax return through the CRA NETFILE platform.
