XXXXXXXXXX
Dear XXXXXXXXXX:
The Honourable Martin Cauchon, Minister of National Revenue, has asked me to reply to your correspondence of June 19, 2000, to which you attached a copy of your letter to the Right Honourable Jean Chrétien, Prime Minister of Canada.
I understand that you have filed a Notice of Objection with respect to your 1998 assessment, which disallowed certain expenses you claimed for the medical expense tax credit. As you are aware, the appeal process is a separate independent review within the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency. This process will proceed in accordance with the authority given under the Income Tax Act. In this regard, officials in the Appeals Division at the Ottawa Tax Services Office will be conducting a complete and impartial review of your file, which is a function independent of the assessing process. I assure you that all the relevant facts will be taken into consideration before a final decision is made.
I appreciate the opportunity to address your concern.
Yours sincerely,
Bill McCloskey
Assistant Commissioner
