@sonyadolguinacpa: Replying to @Zaed Yousif The enhanced trust reporting rules are extremely complex and accountants are being put in the position to identify whether something is a bare trust, however, this is a legal question and not something accountants may be able to analyze. #cra #canada #investments #estateplanning #tax
"creative accounting" got us into this mess, maybe it can get us out 🤣

Couldn’t agree more! More fear is CRA will begin to assess where a bare trust exists, making things even more complicated!

it is not the accountants who are asked whether a trust relationship is a bare trust - it is the taxpayer that must answer the question. If the taxpayer then asks their accountants this question, the accountants should refer the question to the client‘s lawyer.

Lawyers and accountants should plan these together. A lawyer can’t possibly advise unless they know how the document has been reported on the books
