Office of the Taxpayers' Ombudsman
We operate at arms length from the Canada Revenue Agency.
The Office of the Taxpayers' Ombudsman (OTO) works to enhance the Canada Revenue Agency's (CRA) accountability in its service to, and treatment of, taxpayers through independent and impartial reviews of service-related complaints and systemic issues.
