If you filed on time or early using the CRA’s online service your refund should arrive within 2 weeks. If you filed by mail, it could take up to 8 weeks. A few notable exceptions: 

  • If you live outside Canada and file as a nonresident, your refund may take up to 16 weeks.
  • If the CRA selects your tax return for a review or audit, this will also create a delay.

To maximize the odds of receiving your refund as fast as humanly possible, set up direct deposit.

As per the Canada Revenue Agency "

The Canada Revenue Agency's goal is to send your refund within:

  • 2 weeks, when you file online
  • 8 weeks, when you file a paper return

These timelines are only for returns that the CRA receives on or before their due date"
