TEI Conference

Question XXXII
Moving Expenses
In response to question XXVI of the 1999 TEI-CCRA liaison meeting agenda concerning the interpretation of paragraph 6(23), CCRA said that it had not considered whether the moving expense deduction provided by section 62 would be increased if the benefit were taxed pursuant to subsection 6(23). Does CCRA now have an assessing position in respect of this issue?
Agency's Position
The CCRA does not have an assessing position in respect of this issue. Should the TEI or any of its members have an actual situation in mind where the CCRA has included an amount in the income of an employee under subsection 6(23) of the Act but denied the employee a moving expense on the basis that the moving expense was paid or provided for directly by the employer and therefore was not "paid" by the employee, the CCRA would be glad to review the issue at that time.
