Notice Handling (FBR, BRA, SRB)
Do not ignore a tax notice. Respond correctly — within the time limit.
Overview
Tax notices from FBR and provincial authorities carry strict response deadlines. An inadequate or missed response can result in ex-parte assessment, penalty, or prosecution. Spinzer Law Firm analyses every notice, advises on the appropriate response strategy, and prepares and submits the reply on your behalf with the supporting documentation required.
Why This Matters
A single missed notice can result in a tax demand many times the original liability. Early and correct response is the most cost-effective risk mitigation.
Scope of Work
- Notice review and analysis of grounds and deadlines
