An audit can take anywhere from two weeks to several years. Time frames vary depending on many factors, such as: the state of the records; the scope of the audit; delays due to missing records; and meetings with other CRA tax specialists. In addition, although there are time limits for the taxpayer to supply CRA with further information and answers to their questions, the time limits for CRA auditors to respond are far more liberal (even as long as 12 months) and are often the cause of delays.
