CRA Disputes, Tax Audits, Forensic & Litigations Support
Facing a CRA net-worth audit? All tax payers are at risk of income tax audits whether they be personal, business or both at the same time if the taxpayer owns a business. These audits can be very daunting, stressful and costly for taxpayers. KBS Consulting has over a decade of experience in CRA disputes, especially taxpayer/corporation Tax Audits. We have brought down the tax liabilities in some instances for example from $1.5 million corporately as determined by CRA after finalizing their audit, to no additional tax for after KBS completed their full review of the same accounts. KBS can provide client testimonials and reference letters from clients.
Taxpayers that are most susceptible to audits are those who have not properly reported their income or those who fail to keep proper books and records of their financial affairs. Also at risk are taxpayers whose apparent lifestyle doesn’t match their reported income. The most obvious way to not get trapped into a net worth assessment is to make sure that the CRA has no reason or basis to use this method. This means filing all your returns on time, using complete and accurate information, and keeping complete books and records.
Challenging a net worth assessment is no easy task and often takes up a large amount of time. You will need to go through every deposit and withdrawal in your bank accounts, your credit cards, and your investment accounts, as well as the assets you own or have owned, and then reconcile these amounts with your tax filings. The auditor will be doing this and any unexplained deposit or withdrawal will be considered income if it's a deposit and personal expenditure if a withdrawal. Where the audit spans a number of years or goes back a few years, this can be extremely difficult for a taxpayer. How do you remember what each deposit and withdrawal in your account was and what it was for? Even if you remember, there is the difficulty of proving what you remember. This is why the assistance of a diligent and experienced tax accountant at KBS Consulting is a must. This is the best time to get KBS involved is when the auditor contacts you and before any documents are handed over. The earlier you KBS on board, the greater the chances of a favorable outcome are.
