According to Canadian cbc radio, the Canadian Revenue Agency refused to comment on a specific case due to the confidentiality of taxpayer data, but accountant Phil Hogan believes that the error occurred when recording her income in the tax return bill of more than $ 17 million instead of her real income, which amounted to about $ 17,000. .
The news spread in local newspapers and radio stations in Canada ... With a warning: carefully review every number you write on your official papers, so that you do not end up in debt in the millions!
Alina Bokatova says that she thought that notifying her to assess her personal taxes, with a letter that considered her annual income amounted to more than 17 million dollars, was an attempt to defraud her, until she tried to use her bank card a few months later, to be surprised by the freezing of her balance, which amounted to about 6 thousand dollars. .
