Foreign landlord fails to pay taxes, CRA goes after tenant https://t.co/kML0XtNdRl
— The Globe and Mail (@globeandmail) April 12, 2024
A Montreal tenant was audited and ordered to pay the tax he had failed to withhold on the monthly rent to his non-resident landlord, as required by law. As a result, he was ordered to pay six years' worth of tax as well as the compounded interest and penalties. The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) could not collect against his overseas landlord, so the Canadian tenant was on the hook.
Last year, the tenant took the Minister of National Revenue to court, arguing that he did not know his landlord was a non-resident. The tenant, whose Italy-based landlord owned a single unit in a Montreal building, lost the Tax Court appeal on the grounds that they were a Canadian resident paying rent to a non-resident landlord, and were therefore required to withhold and remit 25 per cent of the rent to the CRA
“It is concerning,” said Mr. Luu. “But it's very hard to go after the non-resident, so they put the burden on the tenant.

I had something similar happen a long time ago. This dude just straight up stopped paying his outrageous HOA fees and they came after me for them. They lost but then I was homeless because the AC broke and neither of them would fix it and it was hotter than fricking balls.
