Income Tax Returns
Issued: January 21, 1993
Subject
This circular revises and replaces directive #9R2 issued on January 4, 1991.
Purpose
- The purpose of this circular is to provide trustees with Revenue Canada's document entitled "Processing
of Bankrupt Taxpayer Income Tax Returns".
- This document establishes guidelines with respect to the filing of income tax returns and provides information
concerning communications with Revenue Canada.
- It also addresses the GST credits; the "Family Orders and Agreements Enforcement Assistance Act"; and the
Child Tax Benefit. It is to be noted that this Child Tax Benefit is not taxable and shall not be assigned, charged,
attached, anticipated or given as security.
- These guidelines are being issued as a result of discussions held with the Joint Committee on Bankruptcy,
Bankruptcy Branch and Revenue Canada.
- These guidelines will enable Revenue Canada to process insolvency income tax returns and assessments in an
expeditious manner avoiding unnecessary delays in the administration of estates.
The Superintendent of Bankruptcy
