Protect your records from weather emergencies

Did you know?

Emergency Preparedness Week [May 6-12, 2018] is the ideal time to take a proactive stance - not only in protecting your family, business and property in case of an emergency – but in protecting your records against weather-related calamities with these simple steps:

If you have had the misfortune of having your property damaged by weather related events, before embarking on any construction or renovation make sure you get a written and signed contract. This can protect you against poor workmanship or the risk of liability if an injury takes place on your property.

The Canada Revenue Agency’s taxpayer relief provisions apply in situations where taxpayers or businesses are unable to file a tax return and/or make payments on time because of circumstances beyond their control, such as tornadoes, flooding, landslides, hurricanes, forest fires as well as human made disasters. For information on all types of taxpayer relief requests, go to canada.ca/taxpayer-relief.
