After you get your Notice of Assessment from your first return, you'll be able to sign up for MY Account.

This CRA website tells you how to sign up for My Account: https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/e-services/cra-login-services/cra-user-password-hel...

Thanks for the information! However in my case, this is my first time filing taxes and I didn’t file anything in the previous years. What can I do in this situation if I don’t have a notice of assessment?

You can't sign up for a CRA MyAccount until after you file a return for the first time and get the notice of assessment.

Oh okay got it! So what could be the next step for me? Should I file my taxes through any service like [another company] and then later wait for my NOA to make a CRA account? I again appreciate you giving response to this.

Oh sounds good! I was actually exploring all options that is why i mentioned another company. I’m actually new to filing taxes especially by myself. I have everything ready in turbo tax as well to be submitted. I just wanted to know if I submit my taxes through turbotax now and get a NOA in a few weeks…. I’d then be able to make my new CRA account right?
