Frequently asked questions
Am I eligible for the Voluntary Disclosures Program?
Generally yes, as long as the CRA has not yet contacted you about the matter you wish to disclose, the disclosure is voluntary, complete, and at least one year overdue, and involves a penalty.
What happens if I do not disclose voluntarily?
If the CRA discovers the issue first, you face gross-negligence penalties (up to 50% of the tax owing), full interest, and potential criminal prosecution for tax evasion under section 239 of the Income Tax Act.
How long does a VDP submission take?
Drafting takes 2–6 weeks for most cases. CRA review typically takes 6–18 months. Interest continues to accrue until the file closes, but penalties and prosecution are off the table once you have an acknowledgement letter.
