Protect yourself against identity theft
As part of its involvement in Fraud Prevention Month, the Canada Revenue Agency has provided a news release encouraging Canadians to protect themselves against identity theft.
“The CRA considers the protection of taxpayer information our top priority” said Minister O'Connor. “March is Fraud Prevention Month in Canada. It is an important reminder that we all need to take precautions to protect our personal information, including keeping access codes private and choosing your tax preparer or other professionals carefully before sharing your confidential information.”
