Please go back to the beginning of your 2023 return and follow the instructions on the images below for the software you are using. You can then change your answer to NO you are not filing for the first time.

@maxt16 Have you gotten your notice of assessment for your 2022 tax return? If not, you may have to wait until you get it.
No i have not and its been 15 business days. Thats the problem I'm running into, are delays like this common? I read that it takes about 8-10 business days. I'm worried it wont arrive before April 30th and I wont be able to file my 2023 return.
@maxt16 You can contact the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and ask what the status is on your 2022 return.
