Tax Penalty & Interest Relief Request
There’s a Process for Tax Fairness, And We Can Help You Access It
Life happens. Illness, natural disasters, financial hardship, or honest mistakes can lead to missed filings or late payments, and the CRA may assess penalties and interest. But in many cases, there’s a way to ask for relief. We help clients prepare and submit penalty and interest relief requests under the CRA’s taxpayer relief provisions. We work to build a strong, well-documented case, so you have the best chance of receiving a fair outcome and reducing unnecessary stress.
Our Tax Penalty & Interest Relief Services Include:
Eligibility Assessment
We review your tax history and circumstances to determine whether you may qualify for relief under the CRA’s fairness provisions.
Request Preparation
We craft a clear, compelling submission that outlines the events, context, and justification for the relief, supported by relevant documentation.
Liaison with CRA
We handle the communications with the CRA, answer follow-up questions, and advocate for a fair and timely review of your request.
Integration with Voluntary Disclosure
Where appropriate, we combine penalty relief requests with voluntary disclosure filings to support full and fair resolution of tax issues.
Guidance for Future Compliance
After your request is submitted, we provide guidance to help you avoid penalties in the future and maintain robust compliance systems.
