Tax Collection Assistance
Owing taxes to the CRA is a difficult and stressful situation in which to find yourself as a taxpayer.
A tax debt can arise when you properly file your tax return, but fail to pay your taxes. Similarly, the tax debt can arise after an audit or an investigation conducted by the CRA, when additional taxes are determined to have been owing. In some cases, current or past directors of a corporation can be held liable for the tax debt of the corporation – even if the corporation is no longer in business.
The CRA's intent is for you to pay your taxes and to be tax compliant. We can offer assistance to you in your discussions and negotiations with the CRA and help you establish and maintain proper procedures to avoid tax problems in the future.
Our experienced professionals will assist you in:
- Assembling and preparing documents required to support your requests and negotiations;
- Preparing a strategy for orderly and scheduled debt repayment;
- Negotiating and documenting any arrangements with the CRA; and
- Applying for a taxpayer relief or to negotiate favorable financial arrangements for you or your business.
Dealings with the CRA can be very complicated and often require more than basic accounting knowledge. Contact us in confidence and with the protection of solicitor client privilege to discuss your or your client's personal situation and let us start to help you.
