| To BrickLink: we recently received an e-mail stating that our addresses need
to be up to date by September 30th, hinting that sales tax may be turned on by
October 1st.
What I noticed though is that there was no mention, nor any forms attached, in
regards to the billing agent authorization forms that are handled by the marketplace
platform with CRA for sellers who already collect and remit taxes. It's a
form that (if completed in the way that eBay did), will have your CRA GST/HST
#s in it, and you have us populate our info and send back to you. It advises
the CRA that you are authorized to collect taxes in lieu of us doing it directly.
eBay did not have us file it directly with CRA; I believe they submit this and/or
keep it on hand that they received the authorization to be handling taxes on
behalf of the seller who is registered to do so.
Any info about this? Thanks!

| Yes, most interested in what they have to say about this, if and when they even
bother to.

Wrong tack, Johan.
The idea of “baby steps” or advance in progression should not apply to this type
of implementation. There should be no “baby steps” in addressing this particular
and inevitable factor for the individual vendor. Get it ready thoroughly and
in advance, then launch before the mandated date. Should never be a beta type
of launch, when fiscal obligations to one's government is on the chopping
block.
I imagine getting audited by the Canadian government would feel more akin to
having-a-baby than taking baby steps... Put more bluntly, I don't think "baby
steps" is in the taxman's vocabulary
