Practical Tips for Managing Tax Risk at the Transaction, Audit and Objection Stages

Please join a panel of partners from Osler's National Tax Controversy Group, for a practical session drawing on their collective experience in implementing transactions and dealing with the Canada Revenue Agency at the audit and objection stages.

The panel will address risk mitigation strategies which can save time, costs and avoid headaches later on in a dispute with the Canada Revenue Agency. Topics covered will include:

• Preparing an effective audit defence file

• Dealing with aggressive tax avoidance auditors

• Managing excessive requests for documents

• Auditing the CRA’s audit

• Satisfying the “large corporation” objection rules

• Effectively re-allocating discretionary deductions

• Obtaining fair interest treatment and relief
