Priced by what the return actually contains
An individual T1 starts at $65. A spousal or family pair starts at $130, and each additional family member is from $65. A return for a business owner or someone self employed starts at $350, because the work is a set of business schedules rather than a handful of slips.
Returns with more in them are priced accordingly and published the same way. Investment and capital gains from $450, rental property from $450, United States or foreign income from $500, a T1135 foreign asset form from $150, and a trust or estate T3 from $750.

Slips against schedules
A return built from T4 and T5 slips is quicker than one with business or rental schedules behind it.
How many returns together
