CRA Alert: Don't get involved in illegal tax filing!

The Canada Revenue Agency has issued an alert to inform Canadians that if the refund sounds too good to be true, maybe it is!

"If you hear about a tax preparer offering larger refunds than other preparers, don't be fooled! While most preparers provide excellent service to tax filers, a few unscrupulous return preparers file false and fraudulent tax returns and ultimately defraud their clients.

Remember that even if someone else prepares your tax return, you're the one responsible for all the information on the return."
