The Canada Revenue Agency (the Canadian income tax department, “CRA”) has received details of Canadians with bank accounts in the United Kingdom including England and Northern Ireland and is investigating to see if those Canadians have declared their interest income. Canadians who have not reported their offshore income may still be eligible for the voluntary disclosure program (tax amnesty or VDP) to avoid prosecution and penalties.
