about our service standards<br />
Canadians’ confidence in the integrity of the tax system is<br />
essential <strong>to</strong> the <strong>CRA</strong>’s success. Meeting our service standards<br />
shows that we are responsive <strong>to</strong> the needs of taxpayers and<br />
benefit recipients. Our service standards tell citizens what level<br />
of performance they can reasonably expect from the <strong>CRA</strong><br />
under normal circumstances. We review our standards and<br />
targets every year and update them as needed.<br />

Web pages<br />
Over the last year, the <strong>CRA</strong> posted Web pages that will<br />
help taxpayers <strong>to</strong> find and understand our service<br />
standards. In the coming year, we will add links <strong>to</strong> more<br />
information for each service standard, such as mailing<br />
address and telephone, teletypewriter, and fax numbers.<br />
The <strong>CRA</strong>’s senior management continues <strong>to</strong> oversee the<br />
development of the <strong>CRA</strong>’s service standards. The Agency<br />
Management Committee reviews all new, revised, and<br />
retired service standards <strong>to</strong> make sure that impacts are<br />
considered across the <strong>CRA</strong>.<br />

external Web site. We are also reporting on the standards<br />
