How is not paying someone the GST paying someone under the table? Having a GST number isn't always necessary to have a business and get paid. Just because you don't collect GST, doesn't mean you work under the table. Nice little rant at the end that had nothing to do with my post.
Withholding money because a business doesn't have a GST number is for the company's own benefit and trying to twist it into a "government tax collector hero" is lame.
so please try to answer my question without going on a patented pylon rant.
How does someone not collecting GST equate to tax evasion?
