Reporting Compliance - Program Activity 4

We protect Canada’s revenue base through our compliance activities.


Our Priorities
  • Increase our focus on aggressive tax planning, in particular the abusive use of international transactions and tax havens
  • Continue to combat the underground economy, and GST/HST fraud
  • Enhance programs to address interprovincial tax avoidance and Provincial Income Allocation
  • Continue development and implementation of a compliance communications strategy action plan that uses communications to promote compliance
  • Improve the administration of the Voluntary Disclosures Program
  • Enhance the administration of the Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) program

Our Focus

We will strengthen our core business by identifying, addressing, and deterring non-compliance in priority areas through targeted audits and enforcement, better risk management and targeting techniques, and by improving our understanding of taxpayer behaviour.

We will:

  • increase audit and enforcement activities against aggressive international tax planning
  • evaluate results from the pilot projects on the underground economy and GST/HST fraud
  • implement action plans for interprovincial tax avoidance and Provincial Income Allocation
  • continue the development and implementation of a compliance communications strategy action plan
  • review policies and guidelines for the Voluntary Disclosures Program and implement action plans
  • simplify the reporting requirements for the SR&ED program


Our success will be measured by:
  • the timeliness of our activities
  • the effectiveness of risk assessment and detection of non-compliance
  • the consistency of Voluntary Disclosure Program administration
