Did you know that organizations must occasionally self-asses GST/HST?

Are you aware of which transactions trigger this self-reporting requirement?

If you would like to learn more on the topic, you should attend this Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) GST/HST Presentation. You will hear directly from CRA’s Headquarters employee who has 34 years of experience in GST/HST Programs. The presentation will introduce and discuss the concept of self-assessment. We will explore certain types of events and transactions that can trigger self-assessment, and we will discuss how to properly account for the corresponding GST/HST in cases where the tax has not been initially charged. 

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

• Recognize self-assessment obligation
• Understand how to account for GST/HST
• Learn how to avoid GST/HST mistakes going forward

TOPICS INCLUDE:

• Real Property
• Importations
• Participating Provinces Provincial Component
• Reference Materials

WHO WILL BENEFIT:

This presentation is designed for any individuals who may be involved with their organization’s GST/HST. The information provided will help those responsible for the entity’s GST/HST taxes recognize when transactions do not include GST/HST, however which do require the entity to self report all applicable GST/HST on its own returns. We will review how to avoid potentially costly mistakes which could result in future non-compliance.
