To see what you could be owed, all you have to do is log in to “My Account” and select “uncashed cheques” from the list of “Related Services.”

If you do have any uncashed cheques to claim, you’ll then need to fill in a simple form to get what you’re owed.

If you have a direct deposit already set up with the CRA, the money will go straight into your account and you won’t have to do anything else. If not, the cheque will be mailed to your address on file. Easy!
