Audit defense objectives

Provide maximum evidence of legality of claims: To achieve this we use many techniques including the following:

  • We prepare and submit a comprehensive report.
  • We state in the report the Income Tax Act sections applicable to the claims.
  • We state in the report the pertinent CRA Information Circular or Bulletin references.
  • We state in the report the quotes from other CRA publications to support our position.
  • For small amounts in the disclosure we spend limited time on these reports. This is done to reduce your cost of defense.

Provide maximum evidence of authenticity of disclosures: To achieve this we use many procedures including the following:

  • We prepare a comprehensive report.
  • It contains a table of contents, statement of issues, and discussion of issues.
  • It also contains the necessary attachments.
  • It contains all pertinent documents, e.g., customer invoices and vendor bills.
  • To reduce errors in the report, we show a draft to the client before sending the report to the auditor.
