Taxpayer Law sees rising CRA dispute reassessments in Toronto and across Canada, with many resolved in the taxpayer’s favour.

(PRUnderground) June 17th, 2025

Taxpayer Law, a leading firm of CRA lawyers and tax dispute professionals with offices in the Greater Toronto Area and Ottawa, reports an uptick in CRA objections filed, with most of these disputes concluding in favour of the taxpayer.

According to recent CRA data, objections surged by 47% in 2024–25, rising to 128,386 cases compared to 87,543 the year prior. This figure represents a 98% increase from the 64,712 objections filed in 2022–23.

The rise in CRA objections has been attributed to rapid CRA staffing increases, new tax legislation, and expanded reporting obligations. As inexperienced auditors struggle to apply Canada’s complex Income Tax Act, more reassessments are being challenged and overturned.

Despite the burden that CRA dispute reassessments can place on taxpayers and tax lawyers in Toronto, and beyond, the majority of these objections are being resolved either fully or partially in the taxpayer’s favour.

CRA data confirms this trend. In 2024–25, 62% of CRA objections were either vacated or allowed in part. These wins mean financial relief for taxpayers, including:

• Refunds
• Interest adjustments
• Withdrawn penalties

Taxpayer Law’s team of CRA dispute lawyers and tax lawyers are seasoned in managing CRA objection processes, from preparing Notices of Objection to defending clients in complex reassessment appeals. Whether the dispute involves unreported income, audits, or excessive penalties, they provide hands-on guidance rooted in legal expertise and deep knowledge of CRA procedures.

Taxpayer Law urges any taxpayer facing a CRA reassessment or dispute to act quickly, as legal deadlines for objections are strict. To ensure that Canadian taxpayers stay ahead of these deadlines, Taxpayer Law offers prompt consultations for individuals and businesses who need strategic, results-oriented support in dealing with the CRA.
