That is correct. If you filed after January 1 of 2010 (and it sounds like you filed around Feb 24) then your 2009 taxes become part of your proposal. If you had owed money the debt would have been added to your existing debt and wiped out. Unfortunately because you were entitles to a refund CRA had the right to apply the refund to your debt.
You are no worse off – if you hadn’t filed the proposal CRA still would have taken your refund since you owed them money…
