Unfortunately, the tool WealthSimple provides used to be called SimpleTax. It was made by a team in Vancouver and operated as donationware. You could file your taxes then choose however much you wanted to donate to them for the tool. They promised that they’d never sell your data, and never charge for the tool.
But… then they sold out to WealthSimple, who of course removed that promise to never sell your data.
FYI if you live in Canada don’t use TurboTax, use Wealthsimple(a Canadian company) to file your taxes.
And if you’re in France, don’t use TurboTax, use the official government website that calculates everything for you reliably every year :o
With the nice simulator mode so you can run the numbers and see how much you need to budget for well beforehand.
Nice! Wish our CRA would do that. Just review, approve, and submit all using their systems and no third party nonsense.
