canada revenue personal income tax claim moving expenes denied , what can I do ?

30.September, 2009

Is it there a written Law or they randomly deside.
A government emploee desides that you pay 1,000
or 10,000 dolars tax just like that.
When I call them they avoid responsibility, just pass
to onother to deal .

Yes, the written law is the Income Tax Act. CRA employees also use additional information such as Information Circulars, Bulletins, case law, and their own training manuals. Moving expenses do not get approved in all cases, just when the criteria is met.

If you disagree with their (re)assessment, file a Notice of Objection, and provide the rationale as to why you feel the reassessment/adjustment is incorrect.

    Agents at Revenue Canada will not commit to an answer as they would not want to be called before a hearing. You do have the right to appeal their decision and that information should have been sent to you along with their denial. If it was not then you should go to their offices and pick up an appeal package and do it yourself or contact an attorney.

    What you do is file a Notice of Objection (T400A) within 90 days of the date of the CRA assessment. You can print the T400A from here:

    http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/E/pbg/tf/t400a/README.html

    In the Notice of Objection, write down which taxation year, and what amount you are objecting to. You need to provide documentations and explanation to back up your claim. To find out what is allowable as moving expense, or whether you were eligible to claim moving expense to begin with, see

    CRA interpretation bulletin on moving expense:

    CRA’s interactive webpage regarding moving expense:

    Once you file a Notice of Objection, CRA will have to assign an appeal officer to your file, and he/she will consider the merit of your claim.
