An assessment notice sets strict deadlines for a response. It must be read carefully: the grounds relied on by the tax authorities, the amounts claimed, and compliance with the adversarial procedure required by law.
Once the response deadline has passed without a reasoned challenge, the notified assessments can become difficult to reverse.
Review and challenge
The firm reviews the notice received, verifies the regularity of the procedure followed by the tax authorities, and assesses the merits of the proposed assessment in light of the case.
Where grounds for challenge exist, the firm prepares a reasoned response within the applicable deadline, and then supports the case before the relevant commissions if necessary.
