OK, I know CRA and CIC are both government authorities but they don't directly share information with each other. So if you didn't tell CIC that you worked at a bar for a few months, CIC wouldn't know (unless you indicated on the CEC form that you worked at a bar).fenwick100 said:@ hahamylove
do you think i should hold off from sending my NOA? or wait for them to request it?
And +1 for your help
Also, CIC NEVER said that an NOA is a must - only a supportive document if you can submit one. As long as you provided your employment letter for the job you used to apply, and a T4 reflecting that, and pay stubs, you should already be good to go. It is not CIC's job to reveal any undisclosed employment or catch any tax amount owing to CRA. Unless of course, CRA deemed that you committed tax evasion and called RCMP to arrest you and logged a criminal record, then CIC's decision may be otherwise. But this isn't your case, since the CRA guy said it's fine.
Having said all that, what's your point of sending a new NOA to CIC (not to mention the more complexities you are adding to their office and your file)?
My question to you is, how did CRA find out that you owe them taxes since the bar just paid you mostly in cash?
