What You Need to Know About Tax Litigation
While our approach is to resolve disputes with the CRA through negotiation and settlement whenever possible, there are situations where litigation becomes necessary. Canadian tax authorities are becoming increasingly aggressive in pursuing tax audits and recovering taxes from both businesses and individuals. If you find yourself in a dispute with the CRA, the process leading to litigation typically unfolds as follows:
01
Notice of Re-Assessment
The CRA issues a Notice of Re-Assessment, which you believe contains errors or is unjust.
02
2. Appealing to the CRA
You have the option to appeal the re-assessment to the Appeals Division of the CRA. The Appeals Division can either agree with your position and reverse the re-assessment or uphold the auditor's decision.
03
Tax Court of Canada
If the Appeals Division upholds the re-assessment, your only recourse is to take the matter to the Tax Court of Canada for an independent review.
It’s important to note that the CRA is not the final decision-maker in Canada’s tax system. If you disagree with the decision of the CRA Appeals Division, you have the right to appeal for an impartial review by the Tax Court of Canada. Additionally, if you believe the CRA’s decision on relief, penalties, or interest is unreasonable, you can seek a review of that decision in the Federal Court.
Building a strong case based on facts and applicable laws is crucial in dealing with the CRA. Given the potential financial impact of the litigation process, it’s highly recommended to seek professional assistance from tax lawyers who specialize in tax litigation.
