Newmarket resident fined for not filing tax returns
February 9th, 2010
Nester Raymond Pinga of Newmarket Ontario pleaded guilty in the Ontario Court of Justice on 14 charges of failing to file tax returns. He was fined $14,000. When individuals or corporations are convicted of failing to file returns, they still have to file the returns and pay the full of amount of taxes outstanding plus interest and any civil penalties that may be assessed by the Canada Revenue Agency. If Nester Raymond Pinga contacted CRA before CRA commenced an action under the voluntary disclosure program, there would be no penalties or prosecution only interest and taxes would be due.
