March is Child Cancer Appeal Month. The month aims to raise awareness about the vital support the Child Cancer Foundation offers children with cancer and their families across the country, and funds to support this work. Volunteers will be out in force on Friday, 20 and Saturday, 21 March collecting for the Child Cancer Foundation’s Street Appeal. More than three New Zealand children are diagnosed with cancer each week. Child Cancer Foundation Chief Executive Robyn Kiddle says the Foundation aims to reduce the impact of cancer by offering services that ensure children and their families are supported, informed and well cared for at every stage of their cancer journey. “At any one time we are assisting around 650 families across the country. Our team connects with families upon diagnosis and continues to offer support in hospital, at home and in the community,” she says. “No two families’ cancer journeys are the same. We work to build resilience in families and assist them in a practical way through the many logistical, financial, emotional and social challenges they may experience.” Every child undergoing cancer treatment receives Beads of Courage® from the Child Cancer Foundation in recognition of the treatments and procedures they’ve undergone during their battle with cancer and the milestones they’ve achieved. Some children have 300 + beads and ‘look forward’ to collecting them. It is a great distraction that helps take their mind of the troubles at hand. Support the street appeal 20th & 21st March The Foundation receives no direct funding from the government, so it relies on the generosity of New Zealanders to support its work.

I f you received a letter in the post, or a call from Inland Revenue advising you that your business was going to be audited, you would certainly Richard Matson, Withers Tsang want to know why. Our clients often say to us, “We file all our tax returns on time and make tax payments when required. We are doing everything correctly! Why does Inland Revenue want to audit us?” Often, there are obvious reasons why businesses get audited i.e. they are getting a large GST refund and The Inland Revenue wants to verify that it is correct, or a voluntary disclosure has been made and Inland Revenue wants to verify this. Some of our clients have been audited because they have received media attention or were in a particular industry that Inland Revenue were focusing on. But generally, Inland Revenue will not give you any reason for why they are auditing you. They will just send you a notification of what they intend to audit, and will request the relevant information from you. They may also request an interview and visit your business premises. They can do an audit and you may never find out why they audited you. They do however provide the following reasons in their booklet “What is an Audit” as to why you could have been chosen for an audit: • To analyse your business accounts or tax returns • To check someone else’s records (such as your employer or bank that pays interest) and match them to your records • Information was received in another audit which suggests your records should be checked • Your compliance record (whether you have kept to the tax laws in the past) • Your payment record (weather you have paid your taxes on time in the past) • Selecting a particular industry • Examining a particular issue or problem that affects a group of taxpayers • Where you live, or how your run your business • Local knowledge, perhaps arising from media reports or unexplained wealth • Information we get from other people about you • We may choose you randomly. From our experience with Inland Revenue audits, any of the above situations can apply. So as you can see, there is no particular reason why you, or your business would be audited. Anyone could be audited by Inland Revenue at any time. It is not a matter of if you will be audited, it is more of a matter of when! It is important to get professional advice when you have been notificed of an audit. The team at Withers Tsang & Co Limited know that any type of audit can be stressful, so we are here to assist you with dealing with Inland Revenue. As an added extra to Withers Tsang & Co clients, we offer Audit Insurance, which covers the cost of an Inland Revenue audit. This insurance must been taken up prior to any notification of any audit to cover the costs of the audit. If you have any questions please contact us at Withers Tsang.
