Review the tax regime for exchange of financial account information to fight tax evasion and improve tax compliance<\/p><\/div>
The overall Common Reporting Standard (CRS) regime was developed in response to the G20 nations\u2019 agreement to cooperate on new global standard for automatic exchange of financial account information between the member countries. The Standard provides for automatic exchange between governments of financial account information to better fight tax evasion and improve tax compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
CRS provides standard procedures to be followed by financial institutions to identify and report annually to their local tax authorities certain accounts (Reportable Accounts) held by tax residents of Reportable Jurisdictions, or accounts for certain entities in which such persons have an interest. In turn, the local tax authority will exchange information with other Reportable Jurisdictions with whom they have entered into an agreement and therefore have an obligation to provide information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
CRS applies to all types of financial accounts, including insurance, investments, and business accounts. Over 100+ jurisdictions that have committed to implement CRS and Canada has committed to implement on July 1, 2017 with first exchange of information taking place in 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Effective July 1, 2017, those wishing to purchase policies with a cash value are required to declare their tax residency by completing a Declaration of Tax Residence form (self-certification) as part of the new business application process. There also may be other instances where self-certification will be required by policy owners who already have a policy in-force prior to July 1, 2017, such as conversion of a term policy to a Universal Life policy in addition to a change in ownership of the policy. Each Financial Institution (FI) is obligated to report annually to the CRA. The CRA will, in turn, forward the information to the relevant Reportable Jurisdictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition, the CRS regulations requires a review of all pre-existing non-individual (entity) cash value insurance and annuity contracts in force as at June 30, 2017 that have a value of $250K or more to determine whether the policy owner is deemed a tax resident of a country other than Canada or the US and subject to CRA reporting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
RBC Life Insurance Company takes your privacy seriously and complies with all relevant privacy rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have questions about your tax status for tax purposes, or how these changes may affect you, please contact your professional tax advisor. RBC Life Insurance Company does not provide advice regarding the impact of these changes to clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please be aware that each RBC business must undertake due diligence with its clients in respect of CRS. As a result, if you\u2019re a client of more than one RBC business, you may receive separate communications from these businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
