Tax deadline warning as locals urged to file on time ahead of penalties

The deadline for filing is the end of the day tomorrow (April 30)

Locals are being urged to file on time as the tax deadline approaches, with officials warning penalties can be significant.

Mike Harding, tech expert at Gold Star Business Solutions, explained some of the issues that can arise if people do not file on time.

Harding also spoke about penalties people can face if late.

 

He said the CRA uses a strike system, where penalties increase after a second or third late filing.

Harding noted the benefits of using a professional.

Harding also offered advice for those who feel they regularly owe the government money.

The deadline for filing is the end of the day tomorrow (April 30).
