Oh, I see. Is it working now? Yes.
A lot of people wonder why they're being audited, and so on. Can you tell us a little about the criteria that are used to decide who gets audited and who is left alone?
Do you have statistics on the incidence of audits by income group? There's perhaps a misconception that it's the little guy who always gets audited, and the tax department doesn't worry about the big guys.
My second question is in regard to penalties. How do you decide what the rate of interest will be on a late payment? In regard to GST remittances that companies have to make quarterly, I'm told that if you're late in your remittance, not only do you get charged interest, but you get slapped with a penalty. I don't know if this is true. How are these things determined? How do you know it's the best optimal penalty or interest rate?
Thirdly, is changing the tax form in response to a sudden proliferation of tax credits a costly and cumbersome process?
