Have you ever been audited?

I have never been audited, but I remember my sister and brother-in-law were audited about fifteen years ago (before even Amyra was born). Of course, no one wants to be audited, whether you have something to hide or not. They said the auditor was actually really nice, and they ended up only having to pay $200 because they had claimed a write off that shouldn’t have been counted as one. They were so relieved.

I can imagine how relieved they must have been. No, we haven’t been audited, and bless our accountant every year.

I have never experienced this, but as a teacher, you are always, or shall we say regularly, evaluated and even there occasional classroom observation, both announced and unannounced.

That would make me nervous, for sure.

No, I think those with high incomes have the most to fear.

My parents business that we inherited is frequently being audited. But me as an individual, no.

I always worry about that. But it never happened. Hopefully it never will.

Once I was audited, back in the early 90's. I claimed my child care expenses, and that triggered an audit. As always, I just had to bring in the documentation from Revenue Canada to the accountant, who dealt with it. I know that income taxes can be done pretty cheaply online, but you get what you pay for and you are accountable for any audits, that is why we have our papers done professionally.
