Audits of IT Contractors
Issue Background
The CRA conducted an audit project between September 2009 and October 2010 and looked at the Personal Services Business (PSB) issue across all industries and across the country. The results of the project are as follows:
- 234 small businesses were audited nationally
- 96 were found to be PSB’s
- Of the 96, 44 were in the IT section
- All of the 96 were reassessed relating to the Small Business Deduction and expenses
