- The Tax Court of Canada in Salac v. The King (2026 TCC 153) dealt with a GST/HST appeal under the Excise Tax Act.
- The main issues were whether the taxpayer could claim input tax credits (ITCs) or GST/HST rebates for business expenses and property transactions.
- The Court also examined whether CRA penalties for improper reporting were appropriate.
- It reviewed the taxpayer’s records to determine whether the requirements of subsection 169(1) were satisfied.
- The Court adjusted the GST/HST assessment based on only the expenses it found were properly supported and eligible.
