New mandatory certificate from Revenu Québec discussed

In its continuing efforts to curtail tax evasion and undeclared work, Revenu Québec has implemented additional compliance measures that became effective on March 1, under Bill 28, An Act mainly to implement certain provisions of the Budget Speech of June 4, 2014 and return to a balanced budget in 2015-2016, which received Royal assent on April 21, 2015. The current system of certification is partly modified by these measures, which above all extend the obligation to hold a certificate, particularly for the construction industry and personnel placement agencies operating in the province of Québec.

A Tax Alert prepared by Ernst & Young Canada, and attached below, provides additional details.
