Edward Sylvan fined after not filing taxes for a decade

December 2020, Edward Sylvan was charged with 4 counts of failing to comply with the Income Tax Act in Canada.

Edward Sylvan has been fined $4,000 after pleading guilty to not filing income tax

returns for 10 years. He was handed the fine in North Vancouver provincial court after

pleading guilty to four charges of failing to comply with the federal Income Tax Act.

According to prosecutor Joanne Kuroyama , Sylvan didn’t file any tax returns between 2009

and 2018. In January 2018, he was personally served with a notice to file the missing returns

within 90 days. But Kuroyama said Sylvan didn’t do that and also didn’t file a return for 2019.

Sylvan was ordered to complete the missing tax returns and pay the fine within a year.
