eBay Canada has lost its appeal in the Federal Court of Canada against the Canada Revenue Agency (the Canadian income tax department, “CRA”) in eBay Canada Limited et al v MNR 2008 FCA 348 and is required to release sales details of eBay Powersellers to CRA. Powersellers who have not reported their online income may still be eligible for the voluntary disclosure (tax amnesty) program to avoid prosecution and penalties.
