Rotfleisch & Samulovitch P.C. - Toronto Tax Lawyers

Each year, the CRA conducts over 350,000 tax review and audit activities. The CRA typically audits about 15,000 cash-only businesses, which total to about 7.5 million in Canada, a subset of the estimated 30 per cent of the Canadian economy that is underground [this is entirely speculative]. They also perform roughly 35,000 tax shelter audits. If you refuse to file your Canadian tax returns or the CRA suspects you did not report all your income, they will issue an assessment of your net worth. They take two financial snapshots at different times in the audit: the beginning and ending. Add these up with your income and expenses to determine the opening financials and subtract any loans. If the net amount exceeds your net worth, you may be charged tax, penalty, and interest. You need to know the accounting and proper exclusions of closing and opening balances for net worth calculations. Our firm has successfully challenged these assessments.
