Do you have the T1-KFS page?
Yes, it is possible that you only need the 4 pages as long as you have the T1-KFS.

Do you see a bar code on one of the first 4 pages ?
T1 Condensed is the concise version of the T1 General.
It contains all the necessary information that the CRA requires (instead of showing and printing a lot of unnecessary forms and schedules).

Thanks for the prompt reply! I am not seeing any barcode on my document as I am on the free online version. I understand that T1-condeensed form is supposed to be much shorter than the full T1 form, but according to the paging in the generated condensed form it only contains pages 1,2,7,8 of the total 8 available. Should I be concerned about this?
For a bit of background, I am a deemed resident and currently resides outside Canada, just in case it's relevant.

I do have the T1-KFS generated. In the generated file, pages 1,2 are personal information (step 1 - identification and other info), page 3 is the T1-KFS, and the last page (marked page 8 of 8 ) is the refund/balance owning summary.
Would the four pages be sufficient in this case, despite 4 pages (3,4,5, and 6 of 8 ) were skipped over in the page numbering?

Since 2011, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) had developed a new version of the T1 General return called "T1 General - Condensed" that is generated via the program. This three-pages condensed version of the T1 General return is identified on page 1 as the "CRA version" and is created with a new keying field summary form, The form "T1-KFS", which contains the required field codes and related values printed in a condensed format.
The "T1 General - Condensed" return, the form "T1-KFS", and any additional required forms and schedules not included on form "T1-KFS" are printed by the program. This results in less paper being required, thereby supporting sustainable development, while realizing savings in mailing and storage costs.
If you file your return in paper version, print only the "T1 General - Condensed" return to send to the CRA. The "T1 General - Condensed" return as generated by the program contains all the information required to process the return.

That cleared things up for me. Thanks much for the detailed clarification 🙂
