Is income tax return manadatory if I did not get salary in bank account

[luisalbert]

I am looking forward to apply for express entry and points total is 456. Just joined the pool yesterday.

I have a confusion about proving my work experience as my experience is 100% genuine but I always got my salary through cash and I have all the salary slips but I never had taxable income so never got for 16s or 60 by employer or I never filed an ITR. To prove my work do I have to provide my ITR?

I shall be thankful if you could answer.

I have confirmed from some senior members and the answer is relaxing. As cic is aware about the fact that in developing countries tax is not a liability of everyone, income tax return is not a mandate. If you get any updates and get to know if itr has become a required document please inform the same on this thread.

If you work and receive income in Canada you should be paying taxes in Canada on that Canadian income. Whether or not your home country requires them is irrelevant at this point. Cash payments with payment slips from your employer and paying NO INCOME TAXES is a big issue and you are going to owe CRS some money for sure. Depending on how long you have worked in Canada and not paid taxes is going to determine how much you own and any penalties. I suggest you find a good tax accountant and go over your income in Canada to determine what you must pay and get that taken care of ASAP.
