Are you afraid to pay penalties and interest?
Some of the taxpayers fall behind filing tax returns is due to their poor financial situation. This is not the reason for not filing tax returns. You might be in the horrible situation: get criminal charge due to tax evasion. If you don’t pay off the tax debt, interest and penalties that CRA assumed, they will then send collection agent to trace you for the tax debt you owe, or have bank levy, wage garnishment, or tax lien on your assets. Meantime, the tax debt will like a huge hole to eat all your money. CRA will charge penalties for late tax filings on top of taxes owed on filing. In addition to the late tax filing penalties, the basic interest rate plus 4% will be charged on any overdue balance owing on return or on late or insufficient instalment payments. This is the reason why people with unfiled tax returns for multiple years have more tax debts due to accumulated high amount of penalties and interests.
Factors will be considered whether the relief is warranted
For people who do not have the financial means of paying back a tax debt, there are multiple settlement options available. In order to qualify to file the CRA tax relief, or eliminate or reduce interest and penalty charges, CRA will consider the taxpayers’ request depending on the following factors, such as
- An error from CRA, such as delays or errors in processing the tax return;
- Extraordinary circumstances beyond your control, like a natural disaster;
- Health problems or a death in the immediate family;
- Financial hardship like serious financial burdens leading to inability to pay the tax debt or interest and penalty charges, such as unemployment;
- Other occasions not specifically outlined above may be considered; These are only guidelines
Be Careful the “Ten years rule” for income tax relief!
Please note that CRA can only consider requests for tax payer relief for the previous ten calendar years in which an income tax return is filed or the request is submitted. It means that the taxpayer has ten years to request relief for
- Interest or penalty charges elimination or reduction.
- An acceptance for a late, amended, or revoked in income tax election used by the taxpayer in the preparation of his income tax return.
- Income tax assessment beyond the normal three-year period that requesting adjustment or refund.
