e-4510 (Taxation)

E-petition
Initiated by Ian Woodward from Peachland, British Columbia

Original language of petition: English

Petition to the Government of Canada

Whereas:
  • Many Canadians are compelled to make instalment payments by the Canada Revenue Agency due to fluctuating circumstances that makes it difficult to anticipate how much income a taxpayer may or may not receive in a given year;
  • Despite paying their taxes on time, these taxpayers are often subject to penalties for not paying instalments as prescribed by the Canada Revenue Agency; and
  • This is an unfair and arbitrary standard that must be changed.
We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to amend the Income Tax Act and regulations to eliminate the unfair charging of interest on taxpayers who pay their tax on time.
