Forgiving deadlines

Article Abstract:

Revenue Canada has launched a program called the Fairness Package to address some of the problems taxpayers encounter when paying or filing their taxes. The program, which was introduced in 1991, includes provisions for natural or man-made disasters, social situations, accidents, illnesses, and information errors of Revenue Canada itself. Taxpayers have benefited from the program in situations including late-remittances of non-resident withholding tax, late filing of returns for children, late completion of T1 adjustments, and late filing of trust returns.

Tax preparers beware

Article Abstract:

Chartered accountants and taxpayers should become aware of Revenue Canada's new foreign reporting rules and the penalties involved. The rules require resident taxpayers to file information with Revenue Canada regarding their exportation of funds or property from Canada which excludes them from paying Canadian tax. Accountants should also obtain a written acknowledgement from clients that they are aware of the new reporting requirements.
