Improving cross-border tax compliance

Canada and the United States are working toward improved cross-border tax compliance.

Canada and the U.S. are in the process of negotiating an agreement to improve cross-border tax compliance through enhanced information exchange under the Canada-United States Tax Convention. The federal government is actively seeking a solution to issues raised by provisions enacted by the U.S.’s Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA).

If you are affected by the provisions of FATCA, you can send your comments to:
