If your business is subject to a GST/HST audit by the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) and you think the results of the tax audit are incorrect you can dispute the result. The first step in disputing the results of a tax audit is to file a notice of objection with the CRA with respect to the GST/HST reassessments issued due to the tax audit, usually by retaining an experienced Canadian GST/HST law firm. The notice of objection must be filed within 90 days of the date the reassessments are issued. The Canada Revenue Agency will then assign an appeals officer to your file who will consider your reasons for disagreeing with the tax reassessments. That appeals officer will consider your notice of objection and also any subsequent written or oral submissions your Toronto tax lawyer makes. The appeals officer will then decide whether to confirm, vary, or vacate the GST/HST reassessments.
