There's a first for everything..

Today's workshop was Part 4 of what is now a 5 part series on Keeping Records for non corporate, partnerships, proprietorships, etc.

There weren't any questions. I don't know if it was the fact we were discussing voluntary disclosures, civil penalties or taxpayer relief, as well as payroll, with coverage of topics like SIN #'s and work visas, all of which can generate jail time or prosecution if not handled correctly, or whether everyone just fell asleep because they were up all night doing T4's so they could attend.

Anyway, the video should be loaded up for sale in a few minutes. If you missed todays' session it was a serious look at where are the rules, and what should you be aware of if you run across clients who require correction of the past for good (refunds for missed credits or expenses) or bad (didn't declare what they earned), or who are self-employed and hiring people to work with them. The record keeping rules span a number of laws, not just the ITA. There's federal and provincial Acts like the ETA (GST/HST), ESA (Employment Standards), WCB, CPP, EI, Softwood Lumber and I'm sure there's more Acts and maybe Treaties too, that govern over hiring and firing of employees.
