Paying taxes due for other people?
Well, I got a nasty long distance call from my cousin last night requesting that I pay his taxes for him.
He filed his tax before he leaves Canada, and now he has about $1,000 tax owing to the CRA. He is in Korea vacationing right now. And the deadline to pay any taxes owing is due on April 30th. He will be back in late May to return the money.
Can I do an online banking bill payment to CRA using his SIN? Will the CRA withhold that money because it is coming from someone other than the tax payer associated with the SIN (money laundering issue I guess)?.
I don't want to do it, because I will be a thousand dollar poorer for at least a month. I know he will return my money for sure.
